MIME Type Utilities (Lite)

mime-lite provides a lightweight, standard set of MIME type mappings for JavaScript applications, suitable for both Node.js and browser environments. The current stable version is 1.0.3, with a release cadence that appears to be low but active, incorporating updates for new MIME types as needed (e.g., adding 'xls' in v1.0.3). Its key differentiator is being a 'lite' version, implying a smaller bundle size and a focused set of standard MIME type definitions compared to larger, more comprehensive libraries like the original `mime` package, from which it acknowledges copying its data. This makes it an efficient choice for projects where minimizing footprint is critical. It ships with TypeScript types, enhancing developer experience and type safety.
