Bricks capitalizes on batched reading of layout properties for blazing fastpacking time, no matter how many items. Bricks was developed with a modern JavaScript workflow in mind. To use it, it's recommended you have a build system in place that can transpile ES6, and bundle modules. It's recommended that you assign your Bricks instance to a variable. Using your instance, you can enable and disable the resize handler, add and remove event handlers, accommodate dynamically added elements, etc. Bricks instances are extended with Knot.js, a browser-based event emitter. Use the event emitter syntax to add and remove handlers for the events emitted by the API methods. Bricks depends on the browser APIs ES5 array methods, forEach, map, indexOf, requestAnimationFrame, and matchMedia.
