Install

To install:

``shell npm install @-xun/debug`

`Usage`

> [!TIP] > > This is a low-level package. You probably want [rejoinder][1] instead.

@-xun/debug, as a wrapper around the debugpackage, also shares all of its features; see [debug's documentation][2] for details.

TODO: document the new features enabled by @-xun/debug that debuglacks (for now, see [docs/][x-repo-docs]).

`Appendix`

Further documentation can be found under [docs/][x-repo-docs].

`$3`

This is a [CJS2 package][x-pkg-cjs-mojito] with statically-analyzable exports built by Babel for use in Node.js versions that are not end-of-life. For TypeScript users, this package supports both"Node10" and "Node16"module resolution strategies.

Expand details

That means both CJS2 (via require(...)) and ESM (via import { ... } from ...orawait import(...)) source will load this package from the same entry points when using Node. This has several benefits, the foremost being: less code shipped/smaller package size, avoiding [dual package hazard][x-pkg-dual-package-hazard] entirely, distributables are not packed/bundled/uglified, a drastically less complex build process, and CJS consumers aren't shafted.

Each entry point (i.e. ENTRY) in [package.json'sexports[ENTRY]][x-repo-package-json] object includes one or more [export conditions][x-pkg-exports-conditions]. These entries may or may not include: an [exports[ENTRY].types][x-pkg-exports-types-key] condition pointing to a type declaration file for TypeScript and IDEs, a [exports[ENTRY].module][x-pkg-exports-module-key] condition pointing to (usually ESM) source for Webpack/Rollup, aexports[ENTRY].nodeand/orexports[ENTRY].defaultcondition pointing to (usually CJS2) source for Node.jsrequire/importand for browsers and other environments, and [other conditions][x-pkg-exports-conditions] not enumerated here. Check the [package.json][x-repo-package-json] file to see which export conditions are supported.

Note that, regardless of the [{ "type": "..." }][x-pkg-type] specified in [package.json][x-repo-package-json], any JavaScript files written in ESM syntax (including distributables) will always have the.mjsextension. Note also that [package.json][x-repo-package-json] may include the [sideEffects][x-pkg-side-effects-key] key, which is almost always false` for
optimal [tree shaking][x-pkg-tree-shaking] where appropriate.
