A re-implementation of the `gen_server` behavior (from the OTP framework) for

the OTPless distribution of Erlang, named `worker`.

## Getting started

XXX: To be written.

## Using it in your project

With the **Rebar3** build system, add the following to the `rebar.config` file

of your project.

```

{deps, [

  {worker, {git, "https://github.com/erlangsters/worker.git", {tag, "master"}}}

]}.

```

If you happen to use the **Erlang.mk** build system, then add the following to

your Makefile.

```

BUILD_DEPS = worker

dep_worker = git https://github.com/erlangsters/worker master

```

In practice, you want to replace the branch "master" with a specific "tag" to

avoid breaking your project if incompatible changes are made.
