Usage

isEqual(0, 0); // => true
isEqual(0, 1); // => false

Installation

CLI

npx atmx add helper is-equal

Manually

Copy and paste the following method into @/utils/helpers/undefined.ts:

/**
* Return true if the given values are equal.
*
* To determine equality, `Object.is()` is used first. If it returns
* false, we do the following special checks:
* - `Date` and `Date` with the same time
* - `RegExp` and `RegExp` with the same pattern/flags
* - object with the same keys and values (recursive)
*
* @example
* isEqual(0, 0) // => true
* isEqual(0, 1) // => false
*/
