DUSTOFF – Clean JS build artifacts

Reclaim disk space from JS and TS build artifacts

What it does

DUSTOFF is a CLI tool that helps developers reclaim disk space by finding and removing JavaScript and TypeScript build artifacts such as node_modules, dist,next,cache and others. Instead of manually hunting through projects, Dustoff scans your filesystem and lets you browse, sort, filter and safely delete artifacts interactively. Originally built by the Westpoint engineering team and released as open source.

    I made a CLI tool to create web extensions with no build configuration2024 · github.com · ▲381

    Hello HN! I'm the creator and solo developer of Extension.js, a development tool for browser extensions with built-in support for TypeScript, WebAssembly, React, and modern JavaScript. Developers use it to spend less time configuring the compilation config or learning new frameworks and more time actually writing code. Most projects similar to Extension.js rely on some sort of abstraction or configuration to get started, making the initial development process slow given the extra learning curve and setup guidelines. By using Extension.js, adding the package to your npm scripts is all it…

    Crust – A CLI framework for TypeScript and BunMar 2026 · github.com · ▲95

    We've been building Crust (https://crustjs.com/), a TypeScript-first, Bun-native CLI framework with zero dependencies. It's been powering our core product internally for a while, and we're now open-sourcing it. The problem we kept running into: existing CLI frameworks in the JS ecosystem are either minimal arg parsers where you wire everything yourself, or heavyweight frameworks with large dependency trees and Node-era assumptions. We wanted something in between. What Crust does differently: - Full type inference from definitions — args and flags are inferred automatically. No…

    ts-blank-space – fast TypeScript type-stripper2024 · bloomberg.github.io · ▲22

    We've built a new type-stripping compiler for TypeScript source: `ts-blank-space` It's: * 5.6x faster than `tsc` due to zero-codegen * Written in TypeScript * Uses the official TypeScript parser * Accurate/preserved source locations * In used in production It uses the same novel approach that inspired Node 22.6.0's `--experimental-strip-types` functionality, released last month

    Binary artifact and release management, for everyoneSep 2025 · buildstash.com · ▲15

    Hey HN! I've been building a tool for teams to manage their software binaries and releases. Obviously tools like Artifactory exist - but coming from an apps/games background we found the vast majority of teams didn't use any dedicated tool for managing binaries. Finding what's out there too complex / expensive / missing features they'd find useful. A lot of Google Drive, SharePoint, and Slack dumping grounds - with context lost, and not really suited to keeping track of past builds, distribution, etc. Idea for Buildstash is to bring binary and release management to all…
