proper-tags is an evolved version of the widely-used CommonJS package common-tags. It has been updated with the following considerations for modern JavaScript environments:
- π Extendable: Comes with built-in tools for creating custom tags.
- π¦ ESM Code Base: Ensures native compatibility with modern development tools.
- π¦ Deno Compatibility: Designed specifically to function seamlessly with the Deno runtime.
- π TypeScript Definitions: Integrated TypeScript typings make development in TypeScript a breeze.
- π API Consistency: The interface aligns with common-tags, ensuring compatibility with existing frameworks and guides.
