A state-of-the-art, high-performance JavaScript utility library with a small bundle size and strong type annotations.

//#region src/function/once.ts
/**
* Creates a function that is restricted to invoking the provided function `func` once.
* Repeated calls to the function will return the value from the first invocation.
*
* @template F - The type of function.
* @param func - The function to restrict.
* @returns A new function that invokes `func` once and caches the result.
*
* @example
* const initialize = once(() => {
*   console.log('Initialized!');
*   return true;
* });
*
* initialize(); // Logs: 'Initialized!' and returns true
* initialize(); // Returns true without logging
