Xu is an evolving set of developer utilities for working with Drupal (like Chaos Tools).

Drupal 7

Xu for Drupal 7 is a PSR-0 compliant library of common functionality. None of the D6 functionality has yet been ported and it is limited and evolving. Ctools is no longer a dependency.

Drupal 6

These are mostly helpful functions which I have found cause to reuse in multiple modules, and are organised into libraries (of functions) and helpers (classes). Individual libraries are documented in the code.

Instantiating a library is as simple as calling xu('library-name');. Libraries are ctools plugin's, so are only loaded when required.
