Forked from the legendary FuckItJS by Matt Diamond.
This version brings all the chaotic energy of the original browser tool to your backend scripts.
Now you can steamroll your server-side JS like it’s the early 2000s and nothing matters.
⚠️ This project was vibe-coded with maximum confidence and minimum planning. Use at your own peril. Or don't. We honestly don't care.
Through a process known as Try-It-Explode-It-Nuke-It-And-Retry, FuckItNode repeatedly attempts to execute your horrific script, slicing out any line that dares throw a runtime error. If a syntax error gets in the way? We steamroll from the bottom of the file up until something vaguely resembling code survives.
Unlike the original, we don’t rely on jQuery, onerror, or the browser. This one’s pure Node.js, powered by vm.Script, uncaughtException, and sheer nihilism.
npm install phuckit-node
# npm has a bad word filter 🙃Just require it using Node's -r flag so it wraps your disaster before it can scream.
node -r phuckit-node ./your-shitty-script.jsOr require it in any file
require('phuckit-node')
// your shitty codeNode.js 16+. Possibly earlier. Possibly never tested.
Works best on scripts that:
- Were written quickly
- Were never reviewed
- Should never have worked in the first place
Massive praise and full credit to Matt Diamond, who birthed this masterpiece of controlled failure known as FuckItJS back in 2012. This Node version is a spiritual sequel and unholy homage.
