fastest-json-copy

fastest-json-copy

• Fastest JSON deep clone implementation for Node.js
• Goal of this project is to track and maintain the fastest deep cloning function for plain JavaScript objects (POJOs), aka JSON objects.
• Keeps track of benchmarks of all other implementations.

Usage

Install

yarn add fastest-json-copy

Use

import {copy} from 'fastest-json-copy';

copy({foo: 'bar'});

Performance

For primitive values, 10x faster than fast-copy and 70x faster than JSON.parse(JSON.stringify).
