Introducing Cashe: a Money library written in Ada 2022!

The purpose of Cashe is to give Money its own high-precision datatype taking advantage of Ada's fixed type decimal system[1]. This allows storing money, associated with a currency, at a defined precision with the choice of utilizing fuzzy or exact equality (see readme for more details).

It supports ISO Currencies[2] as well as Custom-defined currencies[3], and even a working Currency Exchange[4].

You can install it using Alire, which is Ada's package manager with a simple `alr with cashe`

There's quite a bit of examples in the readme, but I also gave full code examples for almost all of the functions in the API Documentation[5].

I actually created this library with a budgeting app in mind! In my case, compliant with Ledger rather than Beancount.

It's easier than ever to get into Ada these days. There's a bunch of tutorials on Adacore's website [1] with a playground/sandbox that you can mess with. With Alire[2] (which is to Ada what Cargo is to Rust), you can get the toolchain and any packages with a simple command. If you're on linux or mac, you can also use GetAda[3] that will automatically install Alire for you.
