filesize.js

Filesize.js converts a raw file size value from bits to other more accessible formats.

So instead of seeing a file size value like 1500000000, a developer/reader can see it as 1.40GB instead.

This technique is considered a UX (user experience) recommended practice and should be used whenever possible.

As you can realize by yourself, usage implementations are endless.

The developer has access to some customization options:
- Enable bit sizes
- Enable Unix human readable format
- Set number base system
- Decimal place size
- Customize the spacers
- Customize the suffixes
