This package, `zstd-napi`, provides high-performance TypeScript bindings to the native Zstandard (zstd) compression library, utilizing the Node-API (N-API) for native addon interfacing. As of its latest stable version, `0.0.12`, the library emphasizes reliability and performance, having been proven in production environments with invocation rates exceeding a million times per second. While a specific release cadence isn't explicitly stated, the frequent minor version bumps (0.0.3 to 0.0.12 in recent history) suggest active development. Key differentiators include comprehensive exposure of the stable Zstandard API, supporting advanced features like dictionary compression and multithreading, and offering both high-level and low-level APIs. It ships with pre-built binaries for common platforms and provides robust Node.js version support, including current and active LTS releases, making it a reliable choice for high-throughput compression tasks in Node.js applications.
