# Lo-Dash v0.1.0
A drop-in replacement for [Underscore.js](https://github.com/documentcloud/underscore/) that delivers up to [8x performance improvements](http://jsperf.com/lodash-underscore#chart=bar), [bug fixes](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash/blob/master/test/test.js#L88), and additional features.
## Screencast
For more information check out [this screencast](http://dl.dropbox.com/u/513327/allyoucanleet/post/20/file/screencast.mp4) over Lo-Dash.
## BestieJS
Lo-Dash is part of the BestieJS *"Best in Class"* module collection. This means we promote solid browser/environment support, ES5 precedents, unit testing, and plenty of documentation.
## Documentation
The documentation for Lo-Dash can be viewed here: [/doc/README.md](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash/blob/master/doc/README.md#readme)
Underscore's [documentation](http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore/) may also be used.
For a list of upcoming features, check out our [roadmap](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash/wiki/Roadmap).
## So What's The Secret?
Lo-Dash's performance is gained by avoiding native methods, instead opting for simplified non-ES5 compliant methods optimized for common usage, and by leveraging function compilation to reduce the number of overall function calls.
## What else?
Lo-Dash comes with AMD loader support baked in, chainable `_.each`, and will [soon address](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash/wiki/Roadmap) cross-browser object iteration issues.
## Installation and usage
In a browser:
~~~ html
~~~
Via [npm](http://npmjs.org/):
~~~ bash
npm install lodash
~~~In [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) and [RingoJS v0.8.0+](http://ringojs.org/):
~~~ js
var _ = require('lodash');
~~~In [Narwhal](http://narwhaljs.org/) and [RingoJS v0.7.0-](http://ringojs.org/):
~~~ js
var _ = require('lodash')._;
~~~In [Rhino](http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/):
~~~ js
load('lodash.js');
~~~In an AMD loader like [RequireJS](http://requirejs.org/):
~~~ js
// Lo-Dash is defined as an anonymous module so, through path mapping, it can be
// referenced as the "underscore" module
require({
'paths': {
'underscore': 'path/to/lodash'
}
},
['underscore'], function(_) {
console.log(_.VERSION);
});
