KASH 🚀🎉

What? 🤔

Fast and simple in-memory caching. 🏎️💨

Why? 🎯

Because sometimes you need straight-forward, reliable, and low-latency caching. ⚡

Installation 📦

npm install kash

And then import it:

// using es modules
import kash from "kash";

// common.js
const kash = require("kash");

// AMD
// I've forgotten but it should work.

Or use script tags and globals.

<script src="https://unpkg.com/kash"></script>

And then grab it off the global like so:

const kash = kash.default;

Synopsis 📖

setTimeout(function() {
  console.log(kash.get("foo"));
}, 101);

kash.set("foo", "bar", 100);

console.log(kash.get("foo"));

Will print the following in the console:

bar
null
