[Repository and documentation](https://github.com/mipt-npm/controls.kt)
Controls.kt is a data acquisition framework (work in progress). It is based on DataForge, a software framework for automated data processing. This repository contains a prototype of API and simple implementation
of a slow control system, including a demo.
Controls.kt uses some concepts and modules of DataForge,
such as `Meta` (immutable tree-like structure) and `Meta` (which
includes a scalar value, or a tree of values, easily convertable to/from JSON
if needed).
