Solving Real Problems with NES
Lodash powers mission-critical apps across the web, yet the project is effectively unmaintained. Over 1.5 million weekly downloads still come from Lodash 3.x alone, and millions more use outdated patches of v4. But when CVEs appear, you’re on your own. There’s no roadmap, no maintainer response, and no clear future.
Lodash receives ~70 million downloads per week.
1.5M+ weekly downloads still come from v3.10.1 — a version over 10 years old.
No commits in over 3 months.
No Lodash v5.0. No roadmap.
