lambda-view is a JavaScript code reader that parses source files into an AST and renders them in a browser with layouts optimized for reading rather than editing. It is installed via npm and launched with the `lv` command, which opens files or URLs in a local web server.
Use cases
- read large JavaScript source files comfortably
- browse jQuery source code from a URL
- view JavaScript code with AST-aware formatting instead of plain highlighting
- read code on an iPad over LAN
- open multiple JS files at once for study
When to choose
- you need an editor or IDE with refactoring features
- you need to read languages other than JavaScript
- you need an actively maintained tool
