-## Weak-napi
-
-https://www.npmjs.com/package/weak-napi On certain rarer occasions, you run into
-the need to be notified when a JavaScript object is going to be garbage
-collected. This feature is exposed to V8's C++ API, but not to JavaScript.
-
-That's where weak-napi comes in! This module exports the JS engine's GC tracking
-functionality to JavaScript. This allows you to create weak references, and
-optionally attach a callback function to any arbitrary JS object.
