Omlet is a developer-facing tool that helps teams analyze the usage of React components across their codebases. Its primary goal is to uncover how and where components are used, enabling developers to reduce front-end technical debt and better demonstrate the value of their design systems. It achieves this by tracking component usage within repositories and presenting the data through two main interfaces: the Omlet VS Code extension and the Omlet Dashboard.
The VS Code extension provides in-editor insights about component props and usage frequency, while the dashboard visualizes dependency trees, usage analytics, and adoption metrics. Together, these features make it easier for developers to identify overused, underused, or redundant components. By surfacing these insights, Omlet supports maintenance, refactoring decisions, and justifies design system adoption based on real usage data. It’s especially useful for teams managing large-scale design systems or collaborative front-end codebases across multiple repositories.
