This library is a dependency for browserify. Browserify takes code targeted at node.js and makes it run in the browser. Node.js comes with API of its own that is not available in the browsers. Browserify exposes this code to programs that are unaware they are running in a browser. . Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.
