Avoid using next-tick-2 or next-tick. setTimeout(...) is a better alternative, and it's available everywhere.
Environment agnostic nextTick polyfill
A commonjs module that provides nextTick functionality in node and the browser.
- When run in Node.js
process.nextTickis used - In modern browsers microtask resolution is guaranteed by
MutationObserver - In other engines
setImmediateorsetTimeout(fn, 0)is used as fallback. - If none of the above is supported module resolves to
undefined
The original next-tick module includes the node process module, which causes browserify
to shim the module. It results in a larger bundle size, with unused code.
The original maintainer is not interested in fixing the problem. As a result the browserified code
that relies on next-tick-2 is significantly (3.4X) smaller than that generated by next-tick:
