This package is a mirror of the streams implementations in Node.js.
Full documentation may be found on the [Node.js website](https://nodejs.org/dist/v10.6.0/docs/api/stream.html).
If you want to guarantee a stable streams base, regardless of what version of
Node you, or the users of your libraries are using, use **readable-stream** *only* and avoid the *"stream"* module in Node-core, for background see [this blogpost](http://r.va.gg/2014/06/why-i-dont-use-nodes-core-stream-module.html).
As of version 2.0.0 **readable-stream** uses semantic versioning.
v3.x.x of `readable-stream` supports Node 6, 8, and 10, as well as
evergreen browsers and IE 11.
v2.x.x of `readable-stream` supports all Node.js version from 0.8, as well as
evergreen browsers and IE 10 & 11.
# Streams Working Group
`readable-stream` is maintained by the Streams Working Group, which
oversees the development and maintenance of the Streams API within
Node.js. The responsibilities of the Streams Working Group include:
* Addressing stream issues on the Node.js issue tracker.
* Authoring and editing stream documentation within the Node.js project.
* Reviewing changes to stream subclasses within the Node.js project.
* Redirecting changes to streams from the Node.js project to this
project.
* Assisting in the implementation of stream providers within Node.js.
* Recommending versions of `readable-stream` to be included in Node.js.
* Messaging about the future of streams to give the community advance
notice of changes.
