@types/lodash-es

What is @types/lodash-es?

The @types/lodash-es package provides TypeScript type definitions for lodash-es, a library that offers utility functions for common programming tasks, including manipulating arrays, objects, and strings, as well as utilities for functions, logic, and numbers. This package is essential for TypeScript developers using lodash-es to ensure type safety and autocompletion in their development environment.

What are @types/lodash-es's main functionalities?

Array manipulation

Splits an array into groups the length of the specified size. In this example, it splits an array into chunks of 2.

import { chunk } from 'lodash-es';
const array = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];
const chunkedArray = chunk(array, 2);

Object manipulation

Retrieves all the names of the object's own enumerable property names. In this example, it gets the keys of an object.

import { keys } from 'lodash-es';
const object = { 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3 };
const objectKeys = keys(object);

String manipulation

Converts a string to camel case. In this example, it converts 'Foo Bar' to 'fooBar'.

import { camelCase } from 'lodash-es';
const text = 'Foo Bar';
const camelCasedText = camelCase(text);

Function utilities

Creates a debounced function that delays invoking the provided function until after wait milliseconds have elapsed since the last time the debounced function was invoked. Useful for performance optimization, such as limiting how often a function is called on events like resize.

import { debounce } from 'lodash-es';
window.addEventListener('resize', debounce(() => {
  console.log('Resize event handler');
}, 200));

Other packages similar to @types/lodash-es

underscore

Underscore is a utility library similar to lodash-es, offering functions for working with arrays, objects, and functions. While lodash-es focuses on a modular approach, allowing for tree shaking in modern JavaScript projects, Underscore is typically used as a monolithic utility library.

ramda

Ramda is a functional programming library that provides utility functions for working with JavaScript data types in a functional manner. Unlike lodash-es, which is more imperative, Ramda emphasizes a functional programming paradigm, making it suitable for developers looking for a more functional approach to JavaScript.
