While lodash provides a bevy of useful tools to support functional programming in JavaScript, it can't (and shouldn't) be everything to everyone. lodash-contrib is intended as a home for functions that, for various reasons, don't belong in lodash proper. In particular, it aims to be:
First, you’ll need lodash. Then you can grab the relevant lodash-contrib libraries and simply add something like the following to your pages:
<script src="lodash.js"></script>
<script src="lodash.object.builders.js"></script>
At the moment there are no cross-contrib dependencies (i.e. each library can stand by itself), but that may change in the future.
There is still a lot of work to do around perf, documentation, examples, testing and distribution so any help in those areas is welcomed. Pull requests are accepted, but please search the issues before proposing a new sub-contrib or addition. Additionally, all patches and proposals should have strong documentation, motivating cases and tests. It would be nice if we could not only provide useful tools built on lodash, but also provide an educational experience for why and how one might use them.
Other (potentially) useful sub-contribs include the following:
What do these mean? Well, that’s up for discussion. :-)
