## What it is
FuckItJS is a joke JavaScript library that repeatedly evals your script, catching errors and slicing out offending lines until the code runs. It is explicitly a novelty 'error steamroller' and not intended for production use.

## Use cases
- run broken javascript code anyway
- suppress javascript errors by deleting failing lines
- prank or joke library for javascript demos
- force a script to execute despite syntax errors
- chain script evaluation until it completes

## When to choose
- you want a humorous demo or gag project
- you need to salvage a throwaway script by stripping erroring lines

## When to avoid
- any production or serious codebase
- debugging - it hides errors instead of fixing them
- security-sensitive code since it uses eval
- modern projects needing maintained, licensed dependencies

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: error-handling, parser
- domain: developer-tools, web-development
- platform: browser
- tags: novelty, error-suppression, eval, humor, javascript, nodejs
