## What it is
A tool that analyzes npm package contents for issues with their TypeScript types, particularly ESM-related module resolution problems across node10, node16, and bundler resolution modes. It is available both as a website for exploring packages and as a CLI (@arethetypeswrong/cli) for checking packages on disk.

## Use cases
- check if my npm package's TypeScript types resolve correctly
- detect ESM/CJS module resolution issues before publishing
- verify package exports work in node16 and bundler module resolution
- find out why consumers get 'no types' errors for my package
- lint TypeScript type resolution in CI for a published library
- analyze npm pack output for type problems

## When to choose
- you publish npm packages with TypeScript types and want to catch resolution issues before release
- you maintain a dual ESM/CJS library and need to verify exports in multiple module resolution modes
- you want to add type-resolution checks to a CI pipeline via the CLI

## When to avoid
- you need general TypeScript type checking or linting of source code rather than package type resolution
- you need runtime testing of package behavior rather than static type analysis
