Cascading Modules

Cascading Modules are user contributed code and extensions to Cascading.

Many projects are hosted on GitHub and may have multiple branches and forks as users enrich the original projects.

Many modules are still early stage and are being put forth so more users can test and improve them (so fork freely).

Modules are externally hosted and many are maintained by users. To have your module listed, send an email to support@cascading.org.
