# Polly
Polly is an [OCaml] binding for the Linux [epoll] system call:
* Small, simple, and self-contained
* Avoids most allocation in the event loop
* MIT licensed
Note that [epoll] is specific to Linux and that this library won't
compile on macOS, for example.
## Installation
As of version 0.2.2, Polly is now in [Opam] and can be installed from
there:
```
opam install polly
```
Most recently version 0.4.1 was [submitted] to [Opam].
## Using inside utop
* `make utop` or
* `dune utop`
launches a utop toplevel that has the library loaded for interactive
use.
## Other Epoll Bindings
* [OCaml Backpack](https://github.com/jimenezrick/ocaml-backpack/)
* [Jane Street Core](https://github.com/janestreet/core)
