Jezen/is-thirteen: Check if a number is equal to 13
- pmiller2 7y agoHow did I know this was going to be a useless/joke JS package? IMO, if you’re going to make a joke package, at least make it interesting like onelinerizer[0]. [0]: https://github.com/csvoss/onelinerizer https://github.com/csvoss/onelinerizer
- notus 7y agoWell the title might have given it away.... the api of the package is pretty nice actually, some thought was put into it.
- metalliqaz 7y agoI'm not a web dev so I feel like I'm not in on the joke.
- pmiller2 7y agoLooks like one of a series of joke NPM packages popularized after the left-pad fiasco.
- gowld 7y agoIt's not a web joke. It's someone playing around with npm and github.
- thorwasdfasdf 7y agoIt used to be that you could setup a web page with just a few lines of code and js script include and a css inlude. I bet this lib was created as satire. Modern day web frameworks are so bloated and filled with overhead that even a simple one line evaluation can be turned into a monstrosity.
- yellowarchangel 7y agoIt's satire playing on the fact that the entire Node.js ecosystem is built around 1-liner packages that in any other language this would just be code snippets you'd find on stack overflow. Look at: is-windows (seems archived now for some reason) or https://github.com/jonschlinkert/isobject https://github.com/jonschlinkert/isobject - 2.6million dependencies These packages started out as a good idea to make a standard library for javascript, but after event-stream, left-pad, and other controversies, it's becoming apparent how much of an anti-pattern small 1-liner packages have become.
- ydnaclementine 7y agook, now this is epic
