What is jsindex.com?
jsindex.com collects JavaScript projects in one index and sorts them into categories: frameworks, build tools, libraries, CLI tools, testing, TypeScript, runtimes and general tools. Visitors can search, browse by category or follow a newest-first feed of recent additions. Each entry has its own page with a short plain-English description.
The site also publishes comparison guides, such as San vs Pipcook or Phantomcss vs Nightwatch, and lists of utility libraries. Makers can submit their own tool for free. A listing gets a do-follow backlink, an indexable page and structured data. The site's llms.txt says entries are found through automated discovery workflows and that the tools are open-source JavaScript or TypeScript projects.
Who is jsindex.com for?
JavaScript and TypeScript developers who want to find or compare packages, build tools and frameworks before installing them. It also suits maintainers of small JavaScript projects who want a free listing and a backlink. It is a discovery index, not a package registry or hosting service.
