is-odd
Discontinued I created this in 2014, the year I learned how to program. All of the downloads are from an old version of https://github.com/micromatch/micromatch. I've done a few other things since: https://github.com/jonschlinkert. (by i-voted-for-trump)

SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
Ridiculous as it may be, my guess is that provides a unified way of number checking while avoiding the pitfalls or crazy consequences which could arise from divide-by-zero[1], which I guess might prevent less-experienced folks from tripping up on some of the Javascript gotchas? I'm not really sure. That being said, I have seen those package dependencies in some serious stuff.
Do I agree? I'm not really sure to be honest. Probably not.

tailwindcss -> chokidar -> braces -> fill-range -> to-regex-range -> is-number
is-number was first published 9 years ago, when these kind of micro-packages were in vogue. braces was added as a dependency to chokidar over 6 years ago [1]. And if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I don't think the average JS dev today is going out and pulling in these deps.
