Introducing Scala and Kotlin Support in Socket
Socket now supports Scala and Kotlin, bringing AI-powered threat detection to JVM projects with easy manifest generation and fast, accurate scans.
This module provides some syntax sugar for "class" declarations, constructors, mixins, "super" calls and static members.
You can install using Node Package Manager (npm):
npm install inherit
<script type="text/javascript" src="inherit.js"></script>
It also supports RequireJS module format and YM module format.
Module has been tested in IE6+, Mozilla Firefox 3+, Chrome 5+, Safari 5+, Opera 10+.
