Underscore is a JavaScript library that provides a whole mess of useful functional programming helpers without extending any built-in objects. Underscore provides over 100 functions that support both your favorite workaday functional helpers like map, filter, and invoke, as well as more specialized goodies like function binding, javascript templating, creating quick indexes, deep equality testing, and so on. You may choose between monolithic and modular imports. The project is hosted on GitHub. You can report bugs and discuss features on the issues page or chat in the Gitter channel. Underscore 1.x is backward compatible with any engine that fully supports ES3, while also utilizing newer features when available. Collection functions work on arrays, objects, and array-like objects. We have recent confirmation that the library is compatible with Adobe ExtendScript. There is support code present for IE 8, which we will retain in future Underscore updates.
