set-cookie-parser provides robust parsing of HTTP Set-Cookie headers. It handles various cookie formats, including those with multiple cookies in a single header, and extracts cookie attributes like expires, domain, and path. This package simplifies working with cookies in Node.js environments where the built-in cookie parsing mechanisms may lack flexibility. Ideal for web servers, API integrations, and testing frameworks needing precise Set-Cookie analysis.
