base on List of JavaScript methods which you can use natively + ESLint Plugin # [You don't (may not) need Lodash/Underscore](https://you-dont-need.github.io/You-Dont-Need-Lodash-Underscore/#/)
[](https://spectrum.chat/you-dont-need/lodash-underscore)
[](https://gitter.im/cht8687/You-Dont-Need-Lodash-Underscore)
Lodash and Underscore are great modern JavaScript utility libraries, and they are widely used by Front-end developers. However, when you are targeting modern browsers, you may find out that there are many methods which are already supported natively thanks to ECMAScript5 [ES5] and ECMAScript2015 [ES6]. If you want your project to require fewer dependencies, and you know your target browser clearly, then you may not need Lodash/Underscore.
You are welcome to contribute with more items provided below.
* If you are targeting legacy JavaScript engine with those ES5 methods, you can use [es5-shim](https://github.com/es-shims/es5-shim)
* Please note that, the examples used below are just showing you the native alternative of performing certain tasks. For some functions, Lodash provides you more options than native built-ins. This list is not a 1:1 comparison.
* Please send a PR if you want to add or modify the code. No need to open an issue unless it's something big and you want to discuss.

[](https://coveralls.io/github/you-dont-need/You-Dont-Need-Lodash-Underscore?branch=master)
</div>
If you're using [ESLint](http://eslint.org/), you can install a
[plugin](http://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/configuring#using-the-configuration-from-a-plugin) that
will help you identify places in your codebase where you don't (may not) need Lodash/Underscore.
Install the plugin ...
```sh
npm install --save-dev eslint-plugin-you-dont-need-lodash-underscore
```
... then update your config
```json
"extends" : ["plugin:you-dont-need-lodash-underscore/compatible"],
```
For more information, see [Configuring the ESLint Plugin](configuring.md)
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Note that, while many Lodash methods are null safe (e.g. _.keys, _.entries),
> this is not necessarily the case for their Native equivalent. If null safety is critical for your application, we
> suggest that you take extra precautions [e.g. consider using the native `Object.keys` as `Object.keys(value || {})`].

## Array
### _.chunk
Creates an array of elements split into groups the length of size.
```js
// Underscore/Lodash
_.chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 2);
// => [['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']]
_.chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 3);
// => [['a', 'b', 'c'], ['d']]
// Native
const chunk = (input, size) => {
return input.reduce((arr, item, idx) => {
return idx % size === 0
? [...arr, [item]]
: [...arr.slice(0, -1), [...arr.slice(-1)[0], item]];
}, []);
};
chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 2);
// => [['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']]
chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 3);
// => [['a', 'b', 'c'], ['d']]

### _.reverse
> [!IMPORTANT]
> Not in Underscore.js
Reverses array so that the first element becomes the last, the second element becomes the second to last, and so on.
```js
// Lodash
var array = [1, 2, 3]
console.log(_.reverse(array))
// output: [3, 2, 1]
// Native
var array = [1, 2, 3]
console.log(array.reverse())
// output: [3, 2, 1]
```
Voice from the Lodash author:
> Lodash's `_.reverse` just calls `Array#reverse` and enables composition like `_.map(arrays, _.reverse).`
> It's exposed on _ because previously, like `Underscore`, it was only exposed in the chaining syntax.
> --- [jdalton](https://github.com/cht8687/You-Dont-Need-Lodash-Underscore/commit/22c4bcf2be48dd415d2b073759805562e520b615#)

return []; // return empty if iteratee is missing
}
return [...arrays].flat().filter(
(set => (o) => set.has(iteratee(o)) ? false : set.add(iteratee(o)))(new Set()),

### _.map
Translates all items in an array or object to new array of items.
```js
// Underscore/Lodash
var array1 = [1, 2, 3]
var array2 = _.map(array1, function (value, index) {
return value * 2
})
console.log(array2)
// output: [2, 4, 6]
// Native
var array1 = [1, 2, 3]
var array2 = array1.map(function (value, index) {
return value * 2
})
console.log(array2)
// output: [2, 4, 6]
```
```js
// Underscore/Lodash
var object1 = { 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3 }
var object2 = _.map(object1, function (value, index) {
return value * 2
})
console.log(object2)
// output: [2, 4, 6]
// Native
var object1 = { 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3 }
var object2 = Object.entries(object1).map(function ([key, value], index) {
return value * 2
})
console.log(object2)
// output: [2, 4, 6]
```

### _.minBy and _.maxBy
Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` for find the maximum or minimum collection item
```js
// Underscore/Lodash
var data = [{ value: 6 }, { value: 2 }, { value: 4 }]
var minItem = _.minBy(data, 'value')
var maxItem = _.maxBy(data, 'value')
console.log(minItem, maxItem)
// output: { value: 2 } { value: 6 }
// Native
var data = [{ value: 6 }, { value: 2 }, { value: 4 }]
var minItem = data.reduce(function(a, b) { return a.value <= b.value ? a : b }, {})
var maxItem = data.reduce(function(a, b) { return a.value >= b.value ? a : b }, {})
console.log(minItem, maxItem)
// output: { value: 2 }, { value: 6 }
```
Extract a functor and use es2015 for better code
```js
// utils
const makeSelect = (comparator) => (a, b) => comparator(a, b) ? a : b
const minByValue = makeSelect((a, b) => a.value <= b.value)
const maxByValue = makeSelect((a, b) => a.value >= b.value)
// main logic
const data = [{ value: 6 }, { value: 2 }, { value: 4 }]
const minItem = data.reduce(minByValue, {})
const maxItem = data.reduce(maxByValue, {})
console.log(minItem, maxItem)
// output: { value: 2 }, { value: 6 }
// or also more universal and little slower variant of minBy
const minBy = (collection, key) => {
// slower because need to create a lambda function for each call...
const select = (a, b) => a[key] <= b[key] ? a : b
return collection.reduce(select, {})
}
console.log(minBy(data, 'value'))
// output: { value: 2 }
```

### _.pluck
`array.map` or `_.map` can also be used to replace `_.pluck`.
Lodash v4.0 removed `_.pluck` in favor of `_.map` with iteratee shorthand.
Details can be found in [Changelog](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/wiki/Changelog)
```js
// Underscore/Lodash
var array1 = [{name: "Alice"}, {name: "Bob"}, {name: "Jeremy"}]
var names = _.pluck(array1, "name")
console.log(names)
// output: ["Alice", "Bob", "Jeremy"]
// Native
var array1 = [{name: "Alice"}, {name: "Bob"}, {name: "Jeremy"}]
var names = array1.map(function(x){
return x.name
})
console.log(names)
// output: ["Alice", "Bob", "Jeremy"]

{name:"apple", amount: 4},
{name:"pineapple", amount: 2},
{name:"mango", amount: 1}
];
// Underscore
_.sortBy(fruits, 'name');
// => [{name:"apple", amount: 4}, {name:"banana", amount: 2}, {name:"mango", amount: 1}, {name:"pineapple", amount: 2}]
// Lodash
_.orderBy(fruits, ['name'],['asc']);
// => [{name:"apple", amount: 4}, {name:"banana", amount: 2}, {name:"mango", amount: 1}, {name:"pineapple", amount: 2}]
// Native
const sortBy = (key) => {
return (a, b) => (a[key] > b[key]) ? 1 : ((b[key] > a[key]) ? -1 : 0);
};
// The native sort modifies the array in place. `_.orderBy` and `_.sortBy` do not, so we use `.concat()` to
// copy the array, then sort.
fruits.concat().sort(sortBy("name"));

MDN:
> In comparison to the global `isNaN()` function, `Number.isNaN()` doesn't suffer the problem of forcefully converting the parameter to a number. This means it is now safe to pass values that would normally convert to `NaN`, but aren't actually the same value as `NaN`. This also means that only values of the type number, that are also `NaN`, return true. [Number.isNaN()](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Number/isNaN)
Voice from the Lodash author:
> Lodash's `_.isNaN` is equiv to ES6 `Number.isNaN` which is different than the global `isNaN`.
> --- [jdalton](https://github.com/cht8687/You-Dont-Need-Lodash-Underscore/commit/b8559a603dccaaa2449b5a68a2d8325cf1fb29cd#)

obj[newKey] = object[key];
}
}

### _.uniqWith
Similar to `_.uniq` except that it accepts comparator which is invoked to compare elements of array. The order of result values is determined by the order they occur in the array.
```js
// Lodash
const objects = [{ 'x': 1, 'y': 2 }, { 'x': 2, 'y': 1 }, { 'x': 1, 'y': 2 }];
const result = _.uniqWith(objects, _.isEqual);
console.log(result);
// output: [{ x: 1, y: 2 }, { x: 2, y: 1 }]
// Native
const uniqWith = (arr, fn) => arr.filter((element, index) => arr.findIndex((step) => fn(element, step)) === index);
const array = [1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2];
const result = uniqWith(array, (a, b) => a === b);
console.log(result);
// output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
const objects = [{ 'x': 1, 'y': 2 }, { 'x': 2, 'y': 1 }, { 'x': 1, 'y': 2 }];
const result = uniqWith(objects, (a, b) => JSON.stringify(a) === JSON.stringify(b));
console.log(result);
// output: [{ x: 1, y: 2 }, { x: 2, y: 1 }]

## Number
### _.clamp
Clamps number within the inclusive lower and upper bounds.
```js
// Lodash
_.clamp(-10, -5, 5);
// => -5
_.clamp(10, -5, 5);
// => 5
_.clamp(10, -5);
// => -5
_.clamp(10, 99);
// => 10
// Native
const clamp = (number, boundOne, boundTwo) => {
if (!boundTwo) {
return Math.max(number, boundOne) === boundOne ? number : boundOne;
} else if (Math.min(number, boundOne) === number) {
return boundOne;
} else if (Math.max(number, boundTwo) === number) {
return boundTwo;
}
return number;
};
clamp(-10, -5, 5);

### _.inRange
Checks if n is between start and up to, but not including, end. If end is not specified, it's set to start with start then set to 0. If start is greater than end the params are swapped to support negative ranges.
```js
// Lodash
_.inRange(3, 2, 4);
// output: true
_.inRange(-3, -2, -6);
// output: true
//Native
const inRange = (num, init, final) => {
if(final === undefined){
final = init;
init = 0;
}
return (num >= Math.min(init, final) && num < Math.max(init, final));
}
//Native
const inRange = (num, a, b=0) => (Math.min(a,b) <= num && num < Math.max(a,b));
inRange(3, 2, 4);
// output: true
inRange(-3, -2, -6);
// output: true

### _.random
Produces a random number between the inclusive lower and upper bounds. If only one argument is provided a number between 0 and the given number is returned. If floating is true, or either lower or upper are floats, a floating-point number is returned instead of an integer.
```js
// Lodash
_.random(0, 5);
// => an integer between 0 and 5
_.random(5);
// => also an integer between 0 and 5
_.random(5, true);
// => a floating-point number between 0 and 5
_.random(1.2, 5.2);
// => a floating-point number between 1.2 and 5.2
//Native ES6
const random = (a = 1, b = 0) => {
const lower = Math.min(a, b);
const upper = Math.max(a, b);
return lower + Math.random() * (upper - lower);
};
const randomInt = (a = 1, b = 0) => {
const lower = Math.ceil(Math.min(a, b));
const upper = Math.floor(Math.max(a, b));
return Math.floor(lower + Math.random() * (upper - lower + 1))
};
random();
// => a floating-point number between 0 and 1
random(5);
// => a floating-point number between 0 and 5
random(0, 5);
// => also a floating-point number between 0 and 5
random(1.2, 5.2);
// => a floating-point number between 1.2 and 5.2
randomInt();
// => just 0 or 1
randomInt(5);
// => an integer between 0 and 5
randomInt(0, 5);
// => also an integer between 0 and 5
randomInt(1.2, 5.2);
// => an integer between 2 and 5
```
