## What it is
is.js is a general-purpose, dependency-free JavaScript micro check library for validating types, regexps, presence, time, and environment. It works in Node.js and the browser and provides not/all/any interfaces for its checks.

## Use cases
- validate value types in javascript
- check if a string is a valid email or url
- detect browser and device environment
- check date properties like leap year or weekend
- validate phone numbers and zip codes

## When to choose
- you need lightweight, zero-dependency runtime type and value checks
- you want a single library covering types, regexps, time, and environment detection
- you need checks that work in both Node.js and the browser

## When to avoid
- you need static type checking rather than runtime checks
- you want a library with recent active development or new features
- you need schema or object-shape validation rather than simple checks

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools, form-handling
- domain: web-development, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: type-checking, validation, micro-library, zero-dependency, javascript, nodejs
