I wish a library like underscore or lodash was built into JavaScript to be honest as JavaScript lacks built-in functions for common tasks. Any time a library boasts "no dependencies!", they end up doing their own implementations of a bunch of lodash functions in a more verbose and less safe manner. The functions in lodash are general enough and quick enough to understand if you've not seen them before that it's much better to use them than writing your own in my opinion.
