@acelords/js-utils v1.1.7

AceLords Node Utils

Common utils for your node, Javascript, and Typescript projects.

Why this library?

This libray focuses more on presentation aspects, not to be used in business logic. Different frameworks/libraries render null, undefined and 0 differently

NB e.g. in svelte, null is rendered as "null" in this template {functionThatReturnsNull(null)} and as such would be such a hasle writing multiple #if for checking null (or even {functionThatReturnsNull(null) ?? ""}). It would be nice to just have {functionThatReturnsNullAsString(undefined)} for improved DX don't you agree?

Most functions are meant to be uses only in the Presentation layer. Use them sparingly in the Business logic layer.
