## What it is
A JavaScript library that generates, parses, and enhances stack traces in all web browsers using the Error.stack mechanism. It resolves source maps and returns structured StackFrame objects via Promises.

## Use cases
- capture javascript stack traces in the browser
- parse error stack traces into structured frames
- map minified stack traces back to source with source maps
- hook into window.onerror to collect error details
- debug javascript errors across browsers

## When to choose
- you need cross-browser stack trace parsing and normalization
- you want source-map resolution for minified code stack traces
- you are building client-side error reporting or monitoring

## When to avoid
- you need server-side Node.js stack trace handling
- you want a full error-monitoring SaaS rather than a parsing library
- the project needs actively maintained dependencies, as releases are infrequent

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: error-handling, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: stack-trace, source-maps, javascript, error-reporting
