Husky improves your Git workflow by leveraging Git hooks easily. It prevents bad commits by running scripts before you commit, push, and more. Configure scripts via your package.json and husky automatically executes them, such as running linters, formatters, or tests. This ensures code quality and consistency across your team, ultimately keeping your repository clean and contributing to a more standardized development process.
Husky's release frequency is highly variable. Initial development in 2014-2017 saw bursts of activity. Releases continued sporadically until 2021, including major version jumps. 2024 saw a resurgence in activity, specifically in January, February, July, and August, but from the end of 2024 until today, September 7, 2025, the package has not had any releases.
Husky's npm downloads show a strong upward trend from March 2024 to June 2025, peaking at over 81 million. July and August 2025 saw slight decreases. September 2025 downloads are significantly lower, but represent only a partial month's data as of September 7th.
