As an Emitter instance:
`js
import Emitter from 'component-emitter';
const emitter = new Emitter();
emitter.emit('🦄');
`
As a mixin:
`js
import Emitter from 'component-emitter';
const user = {name: 'tobi'};
Emitter(user);
user.emit('I am a user');
`
As a prototype mixin:
`js
import Emitter from 'component-emitter';
Emitter(User.prototype);
``
Create a new emitter.
Use it as a mixin. For example a plain object may become an emitter, or you may extend an existing prototype.
