- Set deep.p = true if you want non-existent paths to be initialized.
- If you want to unset (or delete), pass undefined as the value.

Installation

With npm do:

`bash
npm install deep-get-set
``

Note

There's a dozen modules like this on npm.
This is a fork from @juliangruber's deep-access module, with a big portion of code directly copied from here: https://github.com/substack/js-traverse/blob/master/index.js#L11-L18.

Similar modules:

- https://github.com/deoxxa/dotty (this one I like because it uses recursion)
- https://github.com/Ntran013/dot-access (pretty much the same as this)
- https://github.com/substack/js-traverse (much more complex and useful)
