The Inko standard library
Inko's standard library is a collection of modules available to every
application. Some types and methods provided by the standard library are
available by default without the need for an explicit import (e.g. the Array
and Map types), while others require an explicit import (e.g.
std.set.Set).
For more information, refer to the Inko manual.
