+
+Store information about any JS value in a side channel, using a Map.
+
+Warning: if the `key` is an object, this implementation will leak memory until you `delete` it.
+Use [`side-channel`](https://npmjs.com/side-channel) for the best available strategy.
+
+## Getting started
+
+```sh
+npm install --save side-channel-map
+```
+
+## Usage/Examples
+
+```js
+const assert = require('assert');
+const getSideChannelMap = require('side-channel-map');
+
+const channel = getSideChannelMap();
+
+const key = {};
+assert.equal(channel.has(key), false);
+assert.throws(() => channel.assert(key), TypeError);
+
+channel.set(key, 42);
+
+channel.assert(key); // does not throw
+assert.equal(channel.has(key), true);
+assert.equal(channel.get(key), 42);
+
+channel.delete(key);
+assert.equal(channel.has(key), false);
+assert.throws(() => channel.assert(key), TypeError);
+```
+
+## Tests
