JS-Signals is a custom event/messaging system for JavaScript inspired by AS3-Signals, providing a Signal-based alternative to traditional DOM/custom event dispatching. It works in browsers, AMD, CommonJS, and Node.js environments.

Use cases

• decouple components with custom events in JavaScript
• implement pub/sub messaging between modules
• replace DOM event listeners with signal-based dispatching
• run actions after multiple signals fire
• use a signals pattern in Node.js or the browser

When to choose

• you want an AS3-Signals-style event system in JavaScript
• you need a lightweight, environment-agnostic pub/sub library
• you prefer typed signal objects over string-based event names

When to avoid

• you need a modern, actively maintained event library
• you want native EventTarget or a framework's built-in event system
• you need features beyond basic signal dispatching
