Introduction

Welcome to NamedSignal!

NamedSignal is a Luau signal implementation, which are essentially pure-Luau replacements (and successors) to the Roblox engine's BindableEvents.

Signals allow you to effectively and conveniently implement Synchronous Functional Reactive Programming (FRP for short) in Roblox, which allows you to build modular systems that subscribe into "events" from other systems without directly depending on them.

Why use this over others?

NamedSignal, as its name suggests, lets you name your parameters (and define variadic ones too), allowing for a much richer auto-fill experience when connecting anonymous functions to events. It's also fully strictly typed for the New Luau Type Solver!

Additionally, NamedSignal is a GohanDucis's Class 3 certified signal, meaning it implements standards and conventions best suited for effective game development.

If you're coming from BindableEvents, this will be a major upgrade for you!

And for those seeking maximum performance, NamedSignal's Signal:Fire() is up to 4x faster than others, with comparable performance elsewhere!
