Catalog of installable Pear modules—application, UI, common, developer, and integration libraries shipped as `pear-*` packages.

Modules

The Pear global API is minimal and not intended as a standard library. Application and integration libraries are supplied via installable modules prefixed with pear-.

Stability legend

Module lists call out a stability indicator. The four levels:

Stability	Description
stable	Unlikely to change or be removed in the foreseeable future.
experimental	New, untested, or has known issues.
deprecated	Being removed or replaced in the future.
unstable	May change or be removed without warning.

Application libraries

Pear modules related directly to the application environment.

Module	Description	Stability
pear-crasher	Uncaught exceptions & uncaught rejections crash logger	stable
pear-message	Send inter-app pattern-matched object messages	stable
pear-messages	Receive object messages that match a given object pattern	stable
pear-pipe	Parent-app-connected pipe, the other end of pear-run pipe	stable
pear-run	Run Pear child app by link. Returns a pipe to the child pipe	stable
pear-updates	Receive platform and application update notifications	stable
pear-user-dirs	Get the path of user-specific directories	stable
pear-wakeups	Receive wakeup events, including link clicks external to app	stable

User interface libraries
