IsCasting is a complex addon for determining some simple casting information that the built in API is lacking.

The information is gathered via a series of function hooks and events and is available to the user on and even after the spell events at only the cost of a function/variable lookup.

There are tons of instances where having this information at your fingertips might be useful: spell announcements, visual combat log, cast time visuals, macros, etc. The opportunities are limited only by your imagination!
