BundleWatch

Know your bundle weight before it bloats.

Local import-size estimates, lighter alternatives, and baseline comparisons without external API calls.

Why This Exists

BundleWatch is built as a privacy-first, local-first alternative to Import Cost. The extension keeps core workflow data on the user's machine and focuses on the advanced workflow gaps documented in the NexForge build tracker.

Features

• Local package sizing
• Inline decorations
• Alternatives map
• Baseline save
• Baseline diff report

Commands

• bundlewatch.showReport
• bundlewatch.setBaseline

Privacy

This extension is designed for local-first operation. Core data is stored in VS Code storage or workspace .vscode files where the feature explicitly supports Git sharing. No cloud service is required for the free v1.0 release.

Commercial Roadmap

The free v1.0 product is intended to be useful on its own. Paid features should be added only where they expand team workflows without weakening the local-first promise.
