{"library":"is-type","type":"library","category":null,"description":"The `is-type` package provides a collection of utility functions for JavaScript type checking, mirroring functionalities often found in Node.js's `util.types` module, but exposed through a direct `is` object for easier access. Released at version `0.0.1` in 2013, this package is effectively unmaintained and has seen no updates since its initial publication. Its primary differentiation was offering a 'nicer API' compared to alternatives like `core-util-is`. Due to its age and lack of maintenance, it is not recommended for new projects. Current stable alternatives are either native JavaScript type checks, TypeScript, or modern utility libraries that provide similar functionality and better compatibility with contemporary JavaScript module systems and environments. It operates exclusively using CommonJS modules.","language":"javascript","status":"abandoned","version":"0.0.1","tags":["javascript","type","checking","is","util","types"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install is-type","imports":["const is = require('is-type');","const is = require('is-type');\nis.array([]);"]},{"cmd":"yarn add is-type","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add is-type","imports":[]}],"homepage":null,"github":"https://github.com/juliangruber/is-type","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-type","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/is-type/compatibility"}}
