No Lodash

• lodash

  187 58,868 5.1 JavaScript

  A modern JavaScript utility library delivering modularity, performance, & extras.

  

For a few years I was opting to use the per-method packages from npm (`npm install lodash.pick`) but they just stopped being updated... https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash.pick has not been updated in 7 years and is stuck at v4.4.0. I guess I missed the memo on that... and none of the npm packages have been deprecated to reflect the state of things.

Now going onto the lodash package on npm, that's listed as v4.17.21 and hasn't been published in over 2 years: https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash

Now the lodash package on github, the latest release is listed as v4.0.0 from 2016: https://github.com/lodash/lodash/releases

There have been no commits to the main branch on github in almost 2 years: https://github.com/lodash/lodash/commits/master

I consider lodash to be deprecated at this point, and will always go for a lightweight function pulled from somewhere like SO or No Lodash.

  JavaScript's utility _ belt

What's more surprising is that Underscore.js[1] has seen more activity recently than Lodash (which was touted as Underscore's successor for years).

  11 5,801 4.1 JavaScript

  A library of dependency-free JavaScript utilities that do just one thing. (by angus-c)

Tree-shaking doesn't help much when the tree-shaken implementation is so bloated.

Here's the one you referenced, lodash.chunk: https://unpkg.com/lodash.chunk – 140 lines after removing comments and whitespace.

That's pretty small compared to a lot of the lodash utilities. Try spot-checking a few on unpkg.

I prefer angus's `just` utilities: https://github.com/angus-c/just

  :ram: Practical functional Javascript

  

Lodash gets so many things wrong I’d rather not see it in most projects. I appreciate a good utility library for JS projects but my go-to choice has to be Ramda[1]. Every function it exports is curried and works great with pipe which enables me to write highly reusable and composable functions in pointfree notation. I have never been as productive with lodash, and I find the functional style easier to read

Exactly, lodash should be part of the language. https://github.com/mlajtos/es1995

  Really Fast Deep Clone

We used `cloneDeep` heavily at a previous role, it isn't particulary fast - so be careful if you cloning very big objects (1mb+). There are faster options out there such as https://github.com/davidmarkclements/rfdc
