Jaro-Winkler for TypeScript

verified Jun 17, 2026

jaro-winkler-typescript provides a pure TypeScript implementation of the Jaro and Jaro-Winkler string similarity algorithms. These algorithms are widely used to measure the edit distance or similarity between two strings, returning a score typically ranging from 0 (completely dissimilar) to 1 (identical). The current stable version is 1.0.1. As a utility library for a well-defined algorithm, its release cadence is expected to be slow, with new versions primarily addressing bug fixes, performance improvements, or minor enhancements. A key differentiator is its explicit TypeScript implementation, offering strong type safety and an improved developer experience in modern TypeScript projects. It serves as a direct, unopinionated implementation focused solely on accurately calculating these specific string similarity scores.
