Not to be a detractor, but what problem does stylifycss solve that isn't solved in almost the exact same way with other solutions?  Is it just usage/approach/code-style/feel?

Aside: I'm not the one who downvoted, would welcome the input from them as well.  This is an integration framework for styling JS applications, so it does fit imo.

Worth adding, a very natural use of generators would be for a CSV parser engine... Generally speaking, generators can be thought of natural streams.  Async generators and for-await being extensions to this usage.

I'm just curious why this was so liked vs other pages/sites?  It seems a little sus.

My bad for double checking forEach and not entries... working from years old memory isn't always the greatest.  Like recalling IE5.0.0 and IE8 specific bugs (so glad I don't need to remember, but kind of sad as I've built up so much esoteric knowledge).

Okay, so I'm able to bring in an npm module that makes pretty heavy use of npm's tcp interfaces, which is nice to see... will probably try mssql next, if that works, I'll be very happy indeed.

This is about iterating an object... should probably also mention that if you're expecting an array, that may be null/undefined, you can use optional chaining.

    myArray?.forEach(...)

As mentioned in the article, you have Object.entries.  Should probably also mention Object.keys and Object.values.

IIRC Array.prototype.forEach was ES5 (not 6), while Object.entries was added with ES6/ES2017.

Woot!  NPM at least seems to be able to import a module I couldn't before... will try it later.

Validating emails with regex should have a couple guard rails...

First, you should check for length, if it's too long, then you can get some performance issues in practice.

Second, you should actually look at what valid emails can be... you can use a quoted User portion, but that may not match what you want to allow.  The Email address spec is actually more broad than what general SMTP email allows to be delivered for internet email.  YMMV of course.

Beyond this, will generally want to add secondary checks for domain portions/lookup as well.

Disclosure, I did used to work for a company that assigned profile values based on email address as an optionally single verification param (social media association, domain popularity, registration time, etc) to flag potential scam entries for additional scrutiny etc.
