Use cases

• mask money input in a form
• format phone number as user types
• input mask without jQuery
• format date input in javascript

When to choose

• you need a tiny, dependency-free input mask for plain JavaScript or legacy stacks
• you want money/number formatting on inputs without loading jQuery

When to avoid

• you need an actively maintained library with recent fixes
• you use a modern framework with its own masking ecosystem (e.g. React/Vue mask components)
