Detect unused exports, dead functions, and orphan files across JS/TS, Python, Go, and CSS. Ship less. Ship cleaner.
Dead code bloats bundles, confuses developers, and hides bugs. Every unused export is a maintenance trap waiting to waste someone's afternoon. DeadCode finds it all and gives you a clean kill list.
Finds exports that are never imported anywhere in your project. Catches the #1 source of dead code in modular codebases.
Identifies functions that are defined but never called, or are unreachable after refactors. No more ghost code haunting your repo.
Detects files with zero inbound imports. Finds forgotten modules, abandoned experiments, and files that slipped through code review.
Block new dead code at the source. Integrates with Lefthook to scan every commit and reject code that introduces unused exports.
Works across JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Go, and CSS. One tool for your entire stack, regardless of language boundaries.
Generate SARIF reports for GitHub Code Scanning and CI pipelines. Integrate dead code detection into your existing review workflows.
