dumper.js is a Node.js library that provides pretty, colorized variable inspection via dd() (dump and die) and dump() (dump and continue) functions. It is inspired by Laravel's debugging helpers and prints nicely formatted variable output to the console.

Use cases

  • pretty-print variables while debugging node scripts
  • dump a variable and stop execution like laravel's dd
  • inspect nested objects and arrays during development
  • replace console.log with readable debug output
  • quickly debug api responses in node.js

When to avoid

  • you need a full debugger with breakpoints and stepping
  • you need structured or machine-readable logging for production
  • you are debugging in the browser rather than node.js
