## What is this?
This is a function that checks if a given character is a white space character:
whether it matches `[a-f0-9]`, case insensitive.
## When should I use this?
Not often, as it’s relatively simple to do yourself.
This package exists because it’s needed in several related packages, at which
point it becomes useful to defer to one shared function.
## Install
This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 14.14+, 16.0+), install with [npm][]:
```sh
npm install is-hexadecimal
```
In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```js
import {isHexadecimal} from 'https://esm.sh/is-hexadecimal@2'
```
In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```html
import {isHexadecimal} from 'https://esm.sh/is-hexadecimal@2?bundle'
```
## Use
```js
import {isHexadecimal} from 'is-hexadecimal'
isHexadecimal('a') // => true
isHexadecimal('0') // => true
isHexadecimal('G') // => false
isHexadecimal('💩') // => false
```
## API
This package exports the identifier `isHexadecimal`.
There is no default export.
### `isHexadecimal(value)`
Check if the given code point (`number`), or the code point at the first index
(`string`), is hexadecimal.
## Types
This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports no additional types.
## Compatibility
This package is at least compatible with all maintained versions of Node.js.
As of now, that is Node.js 14.14+ and 16.0+.
It also works in Deno and modern browsers.
## Security
This package is safe.
