no need an extra layer of abstraction to get an "in memory" database in javascript. no need, babel, webpack, ChatGpt, npm and 10000 libraries for this really. Let me show (works even on the browser):

const KV = {};

KV["credentials"] = {access_key: "XXXX", secret: "YYYY"};

console.log(KV["credentials"].secret);

The point was that “just use redis” is a poor and incorrect advice.

Now show me the rest of the functionality of the OP library like TTL.
