Decodes strings encoded by `encodeURI` and `encodeURIComponent`, without throwing errors on invalid escapes, instead, it returns `null`.


## Installation
```
npm install fast-decode-uri-component
```

## Usage

const fastDecode = require('fast-decode-uri-component')

console.log(fastDecode('test')) // 'test'
console.log(fastDecode('%25')) // '%'
console.log(fastDecode('/test/hel%2Flo')) // '/test/hel/lo'

console.log(fastDecode('/test/hel%"Flo')) // null
console.log(fastDecode('%7B%ab%7C%de%7D')) // null
console.log(fastDecode('%ab')) // null
```
