Very cool tool by Brian Mock, which shows an overview of your component props and their usage in a codebase:
jsx-info
Displays a report of JSX component and prop usage.
Watch my demonstration video for more information.
Why
First of all, I thought it would be cool to see all this info. But more
importantly, I think jsx-info can be used to help refactor your code.
Let's say you have a component called <DataTable> that takes 43 different
props. If you needed to rewrite <DataTable> from scratch, you might not want
to keep as many different props. Using jsx-info you could analyze which props
get used the most and start porting that functionality first.
If the usage of a particular prop is very low, you might even choose to get rid of that prop and rewrite the calling code to use something else instead.
The intended workflow here is to run jsx-info and compare the data with your
prop-types or TypeScript type definitions to find discrepencies.
Installation
