Crosspath normalizes file paths across different operating systems, ensuring consistency regardless of the environment. Designed for cross-platform compatibility, it converts Windows-style paths to POSIX-style paths and vice-versa. This is especially useful in JavaScript projects shared between Windows, macOS, and Linux systems, guaranteeing that file path operations work flawlessly. It simplifies development by removing the need for conditional path handling based on the operating system.
