Similar packages

Other packages similar to spex

bluebird

Bluebird is a fully-featured promise library that provides a wide range of utilities for working with promises, including advanced control flow, collection methods, and more. Compared to spex, Bluebird offers a broader set of features but may be more complex to use for specific batch and sequence processing tasks.

async

Async is a utility module that provides straightforward, powerful functions for working with asynchronous JavaScript. It includes methods for parallel and sequential execution of tasks, similar to spex, but uses callbacks instead of promises. Async is a good choice if you prefer callback-based APIs.

p-map

p-map is a promise-based utility for mapping over iterables concurrently. It allows you to control the concurrency level, making it similar to spex's batch processing. However, p-map is more focused on mapping operations and does not provide sequence or page processing features.
