A library for building self-adjusting computations, following the work of [[http://www.umut-acar.org/self-adjusting-computation][Umut Acar et. al.]]. Incremental gives you a way of building complex computations that can update efficiently in response to their inputs. Incremental can be useful in a number of applications, including:

• Building large calculations (of the kind you might build into a spreadsheet) that can react efficiently to changing data.
• Constructing views in GUI applications that can incorporate new data efficiently.
• Building online versions of existing combinatorial algorithms.

You can find detailed documentation in of the library and how to use it in [[https://github.com/janestreet/incremental/blob/master/src/incremental_intf.ml][incremental/src/incremental_intf.ml]]. You can also find an informal introduction to the library in this [[https://blog.janestreet.com/introducing-incremental][blog post]].
