Streamifier bridges the gap between JavaScript strings, Buffers, and streams, enabling seamless integration between different data handling approaches. It allows you to convert a string or Buffer into a readable stream and vice versa, facilitating easy piping of data. Useful for testing stream processing, mock data creation, or interfacing with libraries that expect stream inputs. Simplified dependency-free solution, offering easy implementation for basic input/output operations.
