The has-symbol-support-x npm package is a utility that checks if the current JavaScript environment has native support for ES6 symbols. This can be useful for ensuring compatibility and feature detection in environments where symbols may not be supported.
Check for Symbol support
This feature allows you to check if the current environment supports ES6 symbols. The code sample demonstrates how to import the package and log the result, which will be a boolean indicating the presence of symbol support.
const hasSymbolSupport = require('has-symbol-support-x');
console.log(hasSymbolSupport); // true or false
The has-symbols package is similar to has-symbol-support-x in that it checks for native support of ES6 symbols in the current environment. It provides a simple boolean result indicating whether symbols are supported. Compared to has-symbol-support-x, it offers the same core functionality but may differ in implementation details and additional features.
The is-symbol package checks if a given value is a symbol. While it does not directly check for environment support of symbols like has-symbol-support-x, it is useful for validating if a specific value is a symbol. This can be complementary to has-symbol-support-x when working with symbols in your code.
