I built a free tool to scan your package.json for API deprecations

While researching API changes I noticed something — Google Maps
removed DirectionsService on May 1 2026 with no soft fallback.
Calls just throw runtime errors after the deadline.

Most developers won't know until something breaks.

So I built DepRadar — paste your package.json, it checks your
exact stack against known deprecations and shows only the ones
affecting you, with severity, sunset dates, and migration links.

Currently tracks 13 real deprecations across:

  • Google Maps (DirectionsService, DistanceMatrixService removed)
  • OpenAI (Realtime API Beta sunset)
  • AWS SDK v2 (maintenance mode)
  • Microsoft Actionable Messages (retired)
  • moment.js, request package
  • And more

Free → depradar.netlify.app
Open source → github.com/Ahmed889-code/depradar

What deprecations am I missing from your stack?
