Connect/Express Cookie Middleware

connect-cookies is an unmaintained Node.js middleware for the `connect` and `express` frameworks, designed to simplify reading and setting HTTP(S) cookies. It wraps the `cookies` and `keygrip` packages to provide cookie management capabilities, including support for signed cookies to prevent tampering. Despite its purpose, the package is stuck at version `0.0.0` and has not seen updates in nearly a decade. Its underlying dependencies (`cookies` and `keygrip`) are also quite old. Modern Node.js applications, especially those using recent versions of Express, should avoid this package due to its abandoned status, potential security vulnerabilities, and lack of support for contemporary cookie standards (e.g., `SameSite` attribute defaults and `__Host` prefixes). Current stable alternatives like `cookie-parser` for basic cookie handling and `express-session` or `cookie-session` for session management are recommended for active development.
