## What it is
disc is a Node.js tool that visualizes the module tree of browserify bundles as a standalone HTML page, helping developers spot large or duplicate modules. It is available as a global CLI (`discify`) and as a pipeable Node.js stream API.

## Use cases
- visualize the module tree of a browserify bundle
- find large modules bloating my JavaScript bundle
- detect duplicate modules in a browserify build
- analyze bundle size by file count or file size
- generate an HTML report of a browserify bundle's composition
- speed up slow browserify builds by identifying heavy dependencies

## When to choose
- you use browserify and want to inspect what's inside your bundle
- you need a quick, standalone HTML visualization of module sizes
- you want to track down bloat or duplicated dependencies in a bundle

## When to avoid
- you bundle with webpack, rollup, or esbuild rather than browserify
- you need automated bundle-size budgets in CI rather than a visual report
- you need an actively developed tool with modern bundler support
