Package description

What is isobject?

The `isobject` npm package is a simple utility for checking if a value is an object. This can be particularly useful when you need to differentiate between objects and other types of values in JavaScript, such as arrays, null, or primitives (e.g., numbers, strings, booleans).

What are isobject's main functionalities?

Object Type Checking

This feature allows you to check if a given value is an object. It returns `true` for objects and `false` for arrays, null, or any other type. This is particularly useful for type checking in applications where distinguishing between objects and other types is necessary.

const isObject = require('isobject');

console.log(isObject({})); // true
console.log(isObject([1, 2, 3])); // false
console.log(isObject(null)); // false
console.log(isObject('hello')); // false
