Good tips if you want your code to fail randomly on older devices.

Surprisingly there are some embedded developers who use Node. I would assume those devices have a trimmed version of the Node stdlib.

Not even businesses doesn't (and shouldn't) care for older devices when it doesn't make economic sense -- even less so a fun learning project.

The code would fail to run on older devices without transpiling wnyway.
