-- Generating Javascript code to query your APIs using vanilla Javascript,
-- Angular.js or JQuery.
--
-- Using this package is very simple. Say you have this API type around:
--
-- > type API = "users" :> Get '[JSON] [Users]
-- >       :<|> "messages" :> Get '[JSON] [Message]
--
-- All you need to do to generate the Javascript code is to write a 'Proxy'
-- for this API type:
--
-- > api :: Proxy API
-- > api = Proxy
--
-- And pick one of the generators:
--
-- - 'vanillaJS' and 'vanillaJSWith' generate functions that use
--   /XMLHttpRequest/ to query your endpoints. The former just calls
--   the latter with default code-generation options.
-- - 'jquery' and 'jqueryWith' follow the same pattern except that they
--   generate functions that use /jQuery/'s AJAX functions.
-- - 'angular' and 'angularWith' do the same but use /Angular.js/'s $http
--   service. In addition, we provide 'angularService' and 'angularServiceWith'
--   which produce functions under an Angular service that your controlers
--   can depend on to query the API.
--
-- Let's keep it simple and produce vanilla Javascript code with the default options.
--
-- @
-- jsCode :: Text
-- jsCode = 'jsForAPI' api 'vanillaJS'
-- @
--
-- That's it! If you want to write that code to a file:
--
-- @
-- writeJSCode :: IO ()
-- writeJSCode = 'writeJSForAPI' api 'vanillaJS' "./my_api.js"
-- @
--
-- If you want to customize the rendering options, take a look
-- at 'CommonGeneratorOptions' which are generic options common to all the
-- generators. the /xxxWith/ variants all take 'CommonGeneratorOptions' whereas
-- the /xxx/ versions use 'defCommonGeneratorOptions'. Once you have some custom
--
-- > myOptions :: 'CommonGeneratorOptions'
--
-- All you need to do to use it is to use 'vanillaJSWith' and pass it @myOptions@.
--
-- @
-- jsCodeWithMyOptions :: Text
-- jsCodeWithMyOptions = 'jsForAPI' api ('vanillaJSWith' myOptions)
-- @
--
-- Follow the same pattern for any other generator.
--
-- /Note/: The Angular generators take an additional type of options,
-- namely 'AngularOptions', to let you tweak aspects of the code generation
-- that are specific to /Angular.js/.
