This seems cool, and probably aimed at a specific use case. Maybe if you're just starting out on joining a team?

My question is if there's something I'm not seeing. How often do people have to do this for it to be a tool? Why couldn't I just check the package.json myself?

Or is this aimed at LLM's, so you can run a program instead of letting an LLM guess the tech?


package.json does not capture all the technologies in a repository. just the JS ones. This seems to capture full stack technologies. This would be very helpful when evaluating existing projects either as a consultant, new team member, open source, or evaluating a vendor's codebase or project.

I could see this being valuable for sales people
