Why entkapp?

In large-scale enterprise projects, codebases naturally accumulate "cruft" – unused files, orphaned exports, and redundant dependencies. This "dead code" increases bundle sizes, slows down build times, and makes the codebase harder to maintain.

entkapp is not just another analysis tool . It's a proactive Janitor for your code. It doesn't just tell you what's wrong; it provides the tools to fix it automatically and safely.
