The `is-map` npm package is a utility library designed to provide a simple and efficient way to check if a given value is a Map object. It is particularly useful in scenarios where type-checking is necessary to ensure that operations on map-like structures are performed safely and correctly.

What are is-map's main functionalities?

Type Checking for Map Objects

This feature allows developers to check if a given value is an instance of a Map. It is particularly useful for validating inputs or ensuring that certain operations are only performed on Map objects. The code sample demonstrates how to use `is-map` to distinguish between Map objects and regular JavaScript objects.

const isMap = require('is-map');

console.log(isMap(new Map())); // true
console.log(isMap({})); // false
