Lightweight-flexible-supercharged Library for Var assignments

ToVar.js is a sleek, intuitive, and powerful front-end framework for faster and easier web development. Development files are usually bloated with var assignments, this simple library supercharges your web application leveraging variable assignments to a third-party module.

Quick start

Install it from npm

$ npm install -g tovar.js

How to implement

toVar = require("tovar");

var myString = toVar('Hello World!');
var myObject = toVar({ value: 'Hello World!' });
var myInteger = toVar(42);

console.log(myString);
	// Returns: "Hello World!"

console.log(myObject);
	// Returns: { value: 'Hello World!' }

console.log(myInteger);
	// Returns: 42

No, really. What's the deal with this package?

Probably you've heard about the packages which broke npm in the last days, this just a mock package to make joke of all those coders who waste 5 minutes of their time looking for a 1 liner code which probably it would take 25 seconds to write.

A good article from David Haney pretty much explains what I think about the current state of NPM and it's awful dependencies waterfall for each module. I can't deny how much frustrating is when a NPM dependency build fails because of this or because of that, and lately happens every 3 or 4 builds.

You're free to use this npm package if you really want, but have fun downloading the 50-or-so random declared dependencies inside the package file even if they aren't used (that's another weak point of NPM if I have to say).
