Package Size Skill

Check npm package sizes.

Bundle Size via API

curl -s "https://bundlephobia.com/api/size?package={package_name}" | python3 -c "
import json, sys
d = json.load(sys.stdin)
print(f'Package: {d["name"]}@{d["version"]}')
print(f'Size: {d["size"]/1024:.1f} KB (minified)')
print(f'Gzipped: {d["gzip"]/1024:.1f} KB')
print(f'Dependencies: {d.get("dependencyCount", "?")}') 
"

Check Installed Sizes

du -sh node_modules/* 2>/dev/null | sort -rh | head -20

Common Lighter Alternatives

• moment → date-fns or dayjs
• lodash → lodash-es or native
• axios → native fetch
• uuid → crypto.randomUUID()

Notes

• Smaller bundles = faster page loads
• Check if native APIs can replace the package
