Research direction

Start by reading the unit registry in packages/bim-units and check whether the example units already exist under another name. Add missing flow, pressure, illuminance, thermal resistance, or specific heat units in SI and US customary forms, each with a dimension and conversion. Add round-trip tests and confirm quantities retain their unit kind.

Description

area: kernel good first issue

From the roadmap ("Good places to start").

packages/bim-units has a unit registry for every trade. Add the units people ask for that are missing, each with conversions and a test, for example flow, pressure, illuminance, thermal resistance and specific heat in both SI and US customary units.

How

  • Check the registry first; some may exist under another name.
  • Every new unit needs a dimension, a conversion and a round-trip test.
  • No bare numbers: quantities keep their unit kind.
