@algrith/safari-numfix v1.0.2

Safari has a sanitization deficiency in <input type="number"> fields compared to modern browsers. It allows non-numeric characters and multiple decimal points, leading to unexpected or invalid values. This package provides a browser-aware workaround that intercepts paste & keydown events, corrects invalid numeric formats, and updates the input value correctly.

🚀 Features

• ✅ Ignores paste actions that include non-numeric characters
• ✅ Fixes Safari-specific paste behavior for number inputs
• ✅ Works with React, Vue, Angular, or plain JavaScript
• ✅ Maintains accurate caret position on insert
• ✅ Ensures only one decimal point is allowed
• ✅ Restricts non-numeric entries on keydown
• ✅ TypeScript support

📦 Installation

npm install @algrith/safari-numfix
# or
yarn add @algrith/safari-numfix
