I found 3 quietly deprecated dependencies in my own project —
no warnings, just sitting there for months. That's what pushed
me to build PkgDiet.
One command scans your Node.js project and flags:
🗑️ Unused dependencies
🏥 Deprecated or unhealthy packages
📦 What's bloating your node_modules
💡 Lighter, modern alternatives (moment → dayjs, etc)
Free, open source, dry-run-safe by default — it never touches
your files unless you explicitly confirm.
npx pkgdiet — try it and tell me what it finds
