dathor-helpers

dathor-helpers is a lightweight collection of pure JavaScript tools that I have created and refined during my day-to-day work as a web developer. It provides tools for DOM manipulation, data observation, form serialization, event management, and general-purpose functions.

Introduction

This library is designed for developers who prefer a minimal, framework-agnostic approach to web development. It focuses on providing essential helper functions without adding unnecessary bloat. Perfect for projects that prioritize simplicity and performance. dathor-helpers provides direct access to standard JavaScript APIs, avoiding unnecessary abstractions for maximum simplicity and performance.

Features

• Tiny Footprint: Lightweight and designed to minimize impact on your project's size.
• Pure JavaScript: No dependencies on external frameworks or libraries.
• DOM Utilities: Efficient functions for common DOM manipulation tasks.
• Data Observation: Simple data observation using JavaScript Proxies.
• Form Serialization: Easily serialize form data into JavaScript objects.
• Event Handling: Streamlined event management functions.
• HTTP Fetch Helper: Flexible wrapper around the native Fetch API with support for base URLs, JSON and FormData handling, query parameters, interceptors, and full control over requests and responses.
• General Helpers: Various utility functions for common JavaScript tasks.
• Minimal Abstraction: Designed for a straightforward approach, dathor-helpers minimizes abstraction layers to keep your code clean and efficient.
• Task Scheduler & Factory : High-precision, requestAnimationFrame-based scheduler for time-critical, I/O-bound tasks (Task.Delay, Task.WhenAll). Provides true CPU parallelism using secure Web Worker management (TaskFactory.RunWebWorkerTask) and built-in cancellation support (CancellationTokenSource) for robust asynchronous control flow (Task.ContinueWith, TaskFactory.ForAsync).

Installation
