So... the implementation is alright by me, but I have questions regarding the concept. We have moveBefore. Can't it already be used for that?
Like moveBefore(fromDomNode, toDomNode.firstChild) ? If it's specifically for nodes that don't have children yet, then why specifically prepend and not append ?
In any case, if you make a prepend, please also make a append :-)

The reason is that we do not want to check if there is a child or not.

I don't understand what "prepend from" and "prepend to" mean. If I prepend "to a node" then I prepend inside this node ? Then toDomNode is the node in which the node is prepended ? Or I prepend "from" the node ? I have no idea what that means as I think this is not proper english. Obviously, append has the same problem. I suggest node and container for parameters. cc @Zinston if I'm just dumb by not understanding the english of "from" and "to" as prepositions for "prepend".

We discussed with @Zinston and the only proper way in english is to say "prepend X to Y" so we would switch the order of the parameters. Same for append, obviously.

I disagree with the english argument. As we saw with sge and the command insertHTML, it is confusing to have to think about what english rule is for any command. It is far simpler to always set the node that will be modified as the first argument as 99% of our helpers.
It make sense to be like english only when it helps rather than create confusion.

Well actually either way node has to be first... insertHTML has the html to insert as first argument so prepend should have the node to insert as first argument as well.

No, all other command except insertHTML has the "target" as the first argument. It's insertHTML that should have it's current argument changed.
