fresh‑require is a tiny utility that lets you load a module while deliberately bypassing Node’s (or Browserify’s) `require` cache, ensuring you get a fresh instance each time. It works in both server‑side Node environments and client‑side bundles built with Browserify, making it useful for developers who need to reload modules on the fly (e.g., during testing, hot‑reloading, or when mutable singletons must be reset).
