Then compare it with dog's and pick the simpler one :) I don't know what's wrong with a utils.js file that only has what you need in a way that fits your project exactly. Woof.

your dog will not look for a simpler impl before making one.

your npm's dependencies authors cat will write a small wrapper and wont know about yours.

But writing that utils.js will end up rewriting jQuery.
