11#### From npm
12
13Install with:
14
15```sh
16npm install stable
17```
18
19Then use it in Node.js or some other CommonJS environment as:
20
21```js
22const stable = require('stable')
23```
24
25#### From the browser
26
27Include [`stable.js`] or the minified version [`stable.min.js`]
28in your page, then call `stable()`.

31 [`stable.min.js`]: https://raw.github.com/Two-Screen/stable/master/stable.min.js

33#### Usage
34
35The default sort is, as with `Array#sort`, lexicographical:
36
37```js
38stable(['foo', 'bar', 'baz']) // => ['bar', 'baz', 'foo']
39stable([10, 1, 5]) // => [1, 10, 5]
40```
41
42Unlike `Array#sort`, the default sort is **NOT** in-place. To do an in-place
43sort, use `stable.inplace`, which otherwise works the same:
44
45```js
46const arr = [10, 1, 5]
47stable(arr) === arr // => false
48stable.inplace(arr) === arr // => true
49```
50
51A comparator function can be specified:
52
53```js
54// Regular sort() compatible comparator, that returns a number.
55// This demonstrates the default behavior.
56const lexCmp = (a, b) => String(a).localeCompare(b)
57stable(['foo', 'bar', 'baz'], lexCmp) // => ['bar', 'baz', 'foo']
58
59// Boolean comparator. Sorts `b` before `a` if true.
60// This demonstrates a simple way to sort numerically.
61const greaterThan = (a, b) => a > b
62stable([10, 1, 5], greaterThan) // => [1, 5, 10]
63```
