NVD Concedes Inability to Keep Pace with Surging CVE Disclosures in 2025
Security experts warn that recent classification changes obscure the true scope of the NVD backlog as CVE volume hits all-time highs.
A small general purpose check library with arithmetic, array, environments, object, presence, regexp, string, time and type check functions. Available for Node.js and the browser.
Originally meant as a drop-in replacement for and forked from is.js.
Install with NPM:
npm install --save fi-is
Use in you application:
const is = require('fi-is');
is.nodejs(); // true
is.number(0); // true
Install with Bower:
bower install --save fi-is
Include the non-minified script for testing and development:
<script src="bower_components/fi-is/dist/fi-is.js"></script>
Or include the minified script for production:
<script src="bower_components/fi-is/dist/fi-is.min.js"></script>
Or, better yet, bundle it with the rest of the scripts.
Please keep you code tidy and readable and document appropriately using the following schema:
/**
* Checks for awesomeness.
*
* @param {String} str It receives a string or whatever.
*
* @returns {Boolean} It must return a boolean.
*
* @example
* is.awesome('fi-is'); // true
* is.awesome(1); // false
*/
is.awesome = function (str) {
return is.string(str) && str === 'fi-is';
};
If the method has more than one argument or it's unnecessary to include all of them, define the method's interfaces below it:
// ...
is.awesome.api['not'];
To build browser versions (dist):
gulp dist
To run tests:
npm test
To update the documentation files:
gulp docs
One-liner:
gulp && npm test
