You‘ll laugh when you see how little code is actually in this thing. It’s so not-enterprisey, you won‘t believe it. It does almost nothing, but it’s super handy.

Just copy the files into your project, and use them that way, or you can do this:
npm install slide
and then:
var asyncMap = require("slide").asyncMap
, chain = require("slide").chain
// use the power!
Enjoy!
