Simple Config Utility for Node.js

Cz is a minimalistic configuration utility designed for Node.js applications, enabling developers to load, manage, and access configuration settings from files or programmatically. It provides methods for loading configuration files (e.g., JSON), setting default values, and getting/setting specific configuration properties using dot-notation paths. The package's current stable version is 1.8.2, released in early 2017. Due to a lack of updates since then, it is considered abandoned. Key differentiators include its extreme simplicity and reliance on CommonJS patterns, making it suitable for older Node.js projects but not for modern ESM-first environments. It provides basic configuration merging capabilities by applying changes on top of defined defaults, with options to reset the configuration or just its defaults.
