Quick overview

shared is a simple way of saying this library can be utilized by both front-end and backend js. meanair-server and meanair-web are the primary consumers, but this code can also be consumed stand alone.

A few functions like object.select are heavy on useful implementation, many others are just terser or more human readable interfaces to already available underlying functionality.

** No types or prototypes were harmed in development or usage of this code ;)

Functions like firstName to extact a first from full name and camelWord that upper-cases the first letter of a string.

More human readable api to Moment.js functionality with the benefit of not needing to worry if you have a Moment vs Date type at hand.
