Package Resolution

Kexra resolves package dependencies by searching local directories and installed modules.

Why this exists

Package resolution ensures that imports can find the correct package versions and locations.

How it works

Packages are resolved in order: local packages/, then kex_modules/, then built-in modules. Version constraints are checked during installation.

Examples

project/
  packages/
    local-utils/
      src/index.kx
  kex_modules/
    external-lib/
      src/index.kx
  src/main.kx  # can import both local-utils and external-lib

Common mistakes

• Not installing dependencies before running
• Version conflicts between packages
• Incorrect package directory structure
