@TehShrike
Object.fromEntries requires node 12+. If we want to support node 10 (lts ends 2021-04-30) we'll have to either polyfill this or do it in another way (which shouldn't be too big a deal).

@RebeccaStevens Hey I think you did a great job, what about creating a separate package with implementation from the current pr? I guess it brings much more value than wait until the maintainer decides to accept your work. I'll be your first user :dd

We want to use your implementation in Osome.com, and I faced the next dilemma to copy-paste and go or use your package and maintain it together. Wait for your thoughts.

I'd be happy to. I've actually been thinking about doing this already but haven't got round to it.
Any suggestions for a name of the package? deepmerge2 is already taken 😛. I might just release it under my user scope @rebeccastevens/deepmerge.

I've also got some ideas on improving the functionality. I'd probably also end up dropping native support for es5.

@RebeccaStevens I guess the name is doesn't matter in terms of the end user. But the one way to think about it is how to get more SEO traffic :d

So it can be

ts-merge-deep
type-deepmerge
typed-deepmerge

So anyway, wait for your next steps 💯

@frolovdev I've just release my own take on deep merge.

Currently the merging functionality can't be customized but that's what I'm going to be working on next. - Done
