object-keys provides a reliable and spec-compliant implementation of Object.keys. It's a drop-in replacement ensuring consistent key enumeration across JavaScript environments, particularly useful for older browsers or environments with incomplete ES5 support. By patching or providing a fallback, object-keys normalizes object key retrieval, preventing unexpected behavior due to inconsistencies in native implementations. This promotes code portability and reduces debugging headaches for developers targeting diverse platforms.
The npm package object-keys saw frequent releases in 2013 and 2014, with occasional updates until 2019. The most recent version, 1.1.1, was published in April 2019. There have been zero releases since then, indicating a period of stability or potential project dormancy. The initial burst of development has significantly slowed.
Object-keys npm package downloads show a significant increase from February 2024 (35M) to July 2025 (232M). Downloads peaked in June 2025 (236M). August 2025 data is incomplete, showing a decrease to 132M which might change. Overall, the package demonstrates strong growth in popularity and usage.
