{"library":"b36","type":"library","category":null,"description":"The `b36` package provides a minimalist utility for converting between Node.js `Buffer` objects and Base36 encoded strings. Currently at version 1.0.0, this library offers a slightly more compact encoding scheme compared to hexadecimal, making it suitable for contexts where shorter, alphanumeric identifiers are beneficial, such as unique IDs in URLs or hostnames. Its release cadence is likely stable and infrequent, as it addresses a specific, well-defined encoding problem with a mature solution. Key differentiators include its simplicity, small footprint, and direct focus on Base36, providing a straightforward alternative to more complex encoding libraries when only Base36 is required, especially beneficial in Node.js environments.","language":"javascript","status":"active","version":"1.0.0","tags":["javascript"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install b36","imports":["import { encode } from 'b36';","import { decode } from 'b36';","import * as b36 from 'b36';"]},{"cmd":"yarn add b36","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add b36","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/creationix/b36","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/b36","openapi_spec":null,"status_page":null,"smithery":null,"compatibility":{"summary":{"python_range":"18–22","success_rate":0,"avg_install_s":null,"avg_import_s":null,"wheel_type":null},"url":"https://checklist.day/v1/registry/b36/compatibility"}}
