v3.0.4

• the whole codebase is now in Typescript
• implode and explode functionality is now in Implode and Explode classes
• fewer cryptic constants
• dropped excessive linting and formatting tools in favor of a simple .editorconfig and .prettierrc, which vscode can handle fine with some basic plugins, no need to litter package.json with 10+ dependencies
• dropped ramda in favor of in-house implementations of functions
• dropped unit tests as they were mostly for type checking in favor of using typescript everywhere
• simplified types and logic where possible and favoured native solutions where possible (for example: using es2022 native hash-values instead of private keyword for private methods and properties)
• performance improvements
