A thorough overhaul of the library to bring it to modern standards and make it easier to use in 2024.
Rewrite the codebase to use modern ES syntax.
Expose the library as a ES module, dropping CommonJS support.
Make code generation generate ESM modules by default, with CommonJS available through --legacy mode.
Overhaul code generation to write simpler code that's more compact and more susceptible to efficient minimization — instead of nested objects, the generated code has flat exports of read and write functions (see readme and test fixtures).
Add TypeScript type check & first-class typings via JSDoc comments.
Remove dependency on ieee754 package and use native DataView instead, which is faster and universally supported.
Modernize dev tools (use Rollup instead of Browserify for UMD builds, ESLint 9+; in addition to an earlier switch from Tap to native Node test runner and coverage and to GitHub Actions from Travis).
