Package Phobia: Pre-install npm Package Size Checker
2025-03-20

Package Phobia is a tool that reports the size of an npm package before you install it. It differentiates between 'publish size' (the size of the source code, usually small) and 'install size' (the size after installation, including all dependencies, which can be much larger). This allows developers to inspect potential dependencies without wasting disk space or waiting for lengthy installations, improving dependency management.
