General improvements

[Uzlopak]

I am affected by the security warning for the npm package csvtojson. So i am looking for a maintained alternative. Btw. Is this package by any chance api compatible with csvtojson?

I saw some older PRs open, so I provided some low key useful PRs to see if this package is maintained.

First: thank you for merging.

Second: i would like to propose some changes:

• consider using vitest or some other lightweight test framework. Jest is heavy and usually slow. Vitest afaik supports node 18+ i think. If supporting older node versions is mandatory than maybe using directly the assert module of nodejs or maybe even some browserify assert replacement is enough?

• add jsdoc for more typings

• if you add jsdoc for typings, you could put all the code into one file. By doing so, you can generate typings with typescript automatically.

• use of some awesome eslint plugins, like sonarjs eslint plugin for static analysis or eslint-plugin-n for node specific lint rules

• lastly maybe let claude, chatgpt and/or copilot have a look at it. Jsdoc and having all the code into one file should also improve the AI result.

• maybe benchmark with tinybench (which is integrated in vitest)

• investigate for potential performance bottlenecks with the benchmarks, use node clinik and all those tools

because these are not 2 minute changes, i wanted to propose these suggestions. Test engine is not so important for me, but i personally hate it, that jest is sooo slow. Also jest makes it hard to debug.

I think half of the suggestions implemented would improve this package significantly. If you agree on some of the topics, i could invest time and provide the PRs.
