Frerunner is a entity component system based game engine.
Frerunner is...

well...

Honestly at this early stage it is not much more than a typescript wrapper around Crafty. If you have tried craftyjs you know what a wonderful engine it is and how powerful yet simple the ecs pattern is for game development. Sadly crafty never made it to 1.0.0 and hasn't seen a commit in the last 4 or so years. Crafty has decent api documentation and most of it applies on Freerunner.
