From narcello·Updated December 23, 2025·View on GitHub·

Many times in large or even small projects, we forgot some components in code that we'll never use and we never take time to search one by one and remove. The project is written primarily in Shell, distributed under the MIT License license, first published in 2020. Key topics include: components, dead, finder, hacktoberfest, react.

:rocket: Dead Components is the Motivation

Many times in large or even small projects, we forgot some components in code that we'll never use and we never take time to search one by one and remove.

:camera: Demonstration

Demonstration
When findead finish, you'll can see:

  • Components name
  • Path of each one component
  • Size of each one file
  • How many dead components
  • How many browsed files
  • How much time spent to execution

:computer: Tech

Just bash :)

:inbox_tray: Install

  • Npm
sh
npm i -g findead
  • Yarn
sh
yarn add findead

:hammer: Usage

bash
findead <folder_to_get_components>

Pass folder to get all of your components in js, jsx, ts and tsx files.

obs: By default, all node_modules folder is ignored.

:zap: Examples

Just one argument

  • If you pass just one argument, it will be used for get components and search usages
bash
findead ~/path/to/search

Raw result

  • Pass -r flag for raw output. Better for atribute output into a file.
bash
findead -r ~/path/to/search

Multiple and specific folders

bash
findead -m ~/path/to/search/{folder1,folder2,...,folderN}
