Streaming Bzip2 Decompression

unbzip2-stream provides a pure JavaScript implementation for decompressing bzip2 (bz2) files and streams, designed to work seamlessly in both Node.js environments and modern browsers (via browserify). The current stable version is 1.4.3, which was last published over six years ago, indicating a maintenance phase rather than active development. Despite its age, it remains a widely used solution for streaming bzip2 decompression due to its pure JavaScript nature, avoiding native dependencies that can complicate cross-platform deployment. It integrates with Node.js streams for efficient processing of large compressed data. A key differentiator is its ability to handle bzip2 streams entirely in JavaScript, distinguishing it from solutions that might rely on compiled binaries or system-level bzip2 tools. It solely focuses on decompression, not compression.
