You Don’t Need JavaScript Native Methods!

For future commenters, who are against loading external library like this, let me share you my personal experience which I got recently when I included a function called \`shuffle()\`.

\
When your app needs to shuffle an array of values, you just `import` it and `use` it, that’s it.

\
Let me tell you what all you are gained from doing this & what happens in the background:

\
* You don’t need to know there are multiple algorithms for this & [Fisher–Yates shuffle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher%E2%80%93Yates_shuffle) is the one to use.
* You don’t need to know there are many variants of the algorithm available over the years and choose the best out of it.
* You don’t need to know the `correct` way to generate random number from the index.
* You don’t need to verify the algorithm's [time complexity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_complexity), whether it is `O(n)` or` O(n2)`
* You don’t have to spend time brainstorm within your company to whether is to make it mutable or immutable.
* If you wrote mutable version, then you are in trouble especially if you use it in frontend frameworks.
* You don’t have to test it whether the result is biased or not.
* You do get the benefits from the open-source lib like cross-verification from the dev community, edge cases addressing, performance improvements, etc.
* And finally, you get all the benefits from the aforementioned features in the **Why? section**.

Thanks.

`cant see any advantage -`Did you read these?

* Works across runtime environments (Browsers, Node.js, Deno, Bun, etc.)
* Consistent & Concise function names
* Helpful in functions composition (Pipe or Compose)
* Supports some older browsers & Node.js >=16
* Avoids Polyfills

\
`thinking about loading external library for very few little thing…`

Very few things? seriously? Please go through our site <https://js-std.pages.dev/> to learn more.

\
`many bugs` - That’s why our lib is opensource, written tests for every valid case, people collaboration make things even better and may be better than your private functions.

\
`deprecated functions and syntax` - Only major release might concern you, even that too will not affect every function, and it is part & parcel of every SDLC.

\
`in many occasions need to load extra migration script` - When you need the aforementioned features, then this is something we can’t avoid.

Anyways thanks for the comment.
