Deptrimer

Deptrimer is a command-line tool designed to help developers manage and maintain their JavaScript applications by identifying and removing unused or deprecated dependencies. In large projects that evolve over time, dependencies can become outdated or redundant. This tool assists in keeping your project clean and up-to-date, ensuring that unused dependencies are removed to optimize your application's performance.

Installation

Install dep-trimmer with npm

  npm install dep-trimmer

How to use

*IMPORTANT by the momnent you have 2 ways to implement this to your projects:

**Modify your package.json adding this line per command **

"scripts": {
    "analyze": "dep-trimmer --analyze"
  }

and after add this line on your scripts you just run like any other scripts

npm run analyze

or you just global install but this second choice is not recommended but if u global install u just run it like cli command without npm run

To run this tool, use the following commands:

1. Analyze your project's dependencies to find unused ones:

   dep-trimmer --analyze

   This will scan your project and display a report of dependencies that are either unused or imported but not used.

2. Remove unused dependencies from your project:

   dep-trimmer --remove

This will uninstall all dependencies that are found to be unused based on the analysis.

3. Display help information to see all available options:

   dep-trimmer --help

This will uninstall all dependencies that are found to be unused based on the analysis.

Note: It's recommended to first run the analysis before removing dependencies to avoid accidental deletion of needed packages.
