Editions

This package is published with the following editions:

• bal-util aliases bal-util/index.js which uses Editions to automatically select the correct edition for the consumers environment
• bal-util/source/index.coffee is Source + CoffeeScript + Require
• bal-util/esnext/index.js is CoffeeScript Compiled + ESNext + Require
• bal-util/es2015/index.js is CoffeeScript Compiled + ES2015 + Require

Older environments may need Babel's Polyfill or something similar.

Usage

Best off looking at source, it's well documented, and there are plenty of tests
