{"library":"sugar-core","type":"library","category":null,"description":"Sugar-core is the foundational module for the Sugar.js JavaScript utility library, providing core functionalities and the mechanism to define new methods. Currently at stable version 2.0.6, the package itself was last published 7 years ago, suggesting a maintenance rather than active rapid development cadence for the core package specifically, although the broader Sugar.js project has more recent releases. It serves as a base for all other Sugar.js npm packages and allows plugin developers to extend the library with custom functionalities. A key differentiating factor is its approach to defining methods, specifically `defineInstance`, which expects the instance object as the first argument and explicitly discourages the use of `this` inside the method body (unless creating a polyfill). It also offers specific helpers like `defineInstanceAndStatic` for `Object` methods, as Sugar.js does not directly extend `Object.prototype` in extended mode. The library ships with TypeScript types, facilitating its use in modern TypeScript projects.","language":"javascript","status":"maintenance","version":"2.0.6","tags":["javascript","sugar","sugarjs","functional","browser","utility","util","typescript"],"last_verified":"Wed May 27","install":[{"cmd":"npm install sugar-core","imports":["import { defineInstance } from 'sugar-core';","import * as SugarCore from 'sugar-core';","import type { DefineMethodFunction } from 'sugar-core';"]},{"cmd":"yarn add sugar-core","imports":[]},{"cmd":"pnpm add sugar-core","imports":[]}],"homepage":"https://sugarjs.com/","github":"https://github.com/andrewplummer/Sugar","docs":null,"changelog":null,"pypi":null,"npm":"https://www.npmjs.com/package/sugar-core","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/sugar-core/compatibility"}}
