## What it is
A CLI tool that visualizes the contents of a React Native JavaScript bundle using source-map-explorer on Metro bundler output. It helps developers identify which packages or libraries are inflating their app's bundle size.

## Use cases
- find out which npm packages are making my react-native bundle huge
- visualize react-native bundle size breakdown
- reduce app loading time by identifying heavy javascript dependencies
- analyze bundle size for an expo project
- see what's inside my metro bundler output
- compare bundle size before and after removing a library

## When to choose
- you develop React Native or Expo apps and want to optimize bundle size
- you need a quick npx-runnable analysis without project configuration
- you want a visual treemap of which dependencies contribute most bytes

## When to avoid
- you need bundle analysis for plain web apps (use webpack-bundle-analyzer instead)
- you need native binary size analysis rather than JavaScript bundle analysis
- your project does not use Metro as its bundler

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, build-tool, data-visualization
- domain: developer-tools, mobile-development, frontend
- platform: cli, cross-platform
