Notes on Libraries
Healer Communication Libs
Grid, while being very flexible, tends to be "healer-centric". As such, many of the modules written for Grid are designed for healers. Those modules which depend on communicating heal information between other users typically use one for the following libraries:
These libraries provide a lot of overlapping functionality. LibHealComm-3.0 was designed as a replacement for IncomingHealsLib-1.0, with the goal of unifying the heal communication used by Grid and it's modules, as well as other addons like VisualHeal.
It should be noted that to get the most accurate view of heals being cast by healers in your raid, regardless of which addon or Grid module is being used, that they should all be using the same method (i.e. library) to communicate heals with other users.
