This software provides the Node.js `util.deprecate()` function in environments with browser support, including use via browserify. It lets developers mark functions as deprecated so callers will see a deprecation warning message.

Recent updates
1.0.2
Release 1.0.2 makes a small browser-side change related to checking `localStorage`. The only code diff updates `browser.js` to avoid exceptions when `localStorage` access is blocked (for example, in sandboxed iframes).
v1.0.1
Release v1.0.1 updates the browser implementation of util-deprecate and adjusts the warning behavior. The published release notes are missing, so all behavioral changes must be inferred from the code diff.
BreakingFeaturesv1.0.0
Release v1.0.0 was published on 2014-04-30, but no release notes were provided by the publisher. As a result, there is no documented information about new features, breaking changes, bug fixes, security updates, or migration steps.
