What it is

A simple utility to clamp a given number between a minimum and maximum value. Useful for ensuring numbers fall within expected ranges in various applications.

math-clamp offers a straightforward and minimalistic approach to clamping numbers in JavaScript projects without the need for larger utility libraries.

When it fits — and when it doesn’t

A good fit for

  • JavaScript developers who need a simple utility for clamping numbers without adding complexity or dependencies.

  • Projects requiring lightweight and efficient number range validation.

Look elsewhere if

  • Complex mathematical operations that require more sophisticated libraries.

  • Scenarios where performance is critical and every millisecond counts, as this tool might add minor overhead.

Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

  1. 01

    Limited functionality for complex use cases

    The tool only supports clamping numbers between a minimum and maximum value, lacking support for more advanced operations or data types.

  2. 02

    Narrow scope limits broad applicability

    Being a single-purpose utility restricts its usefulness in projects that require broader numerical processing capabilities.

  3. 03

    No built-in error handling for non-numeric inputs

    The tool does not validate input types, potentially leading to runtime errors if non-numeric values are passed.

What it does well

  • Simple and lightweight utility for clamping numbers.

  • Easy to integrate into JavaScript projects.
