h1. Using Underscore.js library in Qt Quick
Underscore is a JavaScript library that provides a whole mess of useful functional programming helpers without extending any built-in objects.
Unfortunately you cannot just import Underscore like:
import "underscore.js" as Underscore<code>
due "immutable root object":http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtqml-javascript-hostenvironment.html#javascript-environment-restrictions
The workaround is to modify ''underscore.js'' so that it returned underscore object via special ''init'' function.
This is a diff output for Underscore.js version 1.4.4:

Now you can use it in your project:
import "underscore.js" as Underscore
// …
property var _: Underscore.init();
Drawback of this approach is the following warning in application console:
