fastest-levenshtein - extremely fast Levenshtein distance implementation.

Several Levenshtein packages exist on NPM:fast-levenshtein: 12,401,141 weekly downloadsleven: 11,538,628 weekly downloadslevenary: 6,804,036 weekly downloadsdamerau-levenshtein: 4,919,358 weekly downloadsjs-levenshtein: 2,512,578 weekly downloadsI set out to write the fastest implementation of this very popular algorithm. This resulted in a higly optimized bit-parallel implementation that is up to 10x+ faster than the second fastest implementation.Check out the benchmarks:fastest-levenshtein
