Magicast is a powerful tool that simplifies AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) manipulation in JavaScript and TypeScript projects. It provides a fluent and intuitive API to modify code directly within your existing files while handling the complexities of parsing and generating valid syntax. Use Magicast for tasks like automated refactoring, code generation, or transforming existing codebases with ease and minimal boilerplate. It offers granular control and reduces the risk of introducing syntax errors during code transformations.

Magicast's npm package downloads demonstrate consistent growth. Starting with 5.6 million downloads in March 2024, they surged to over 29 million by August 2025. The trend indicates increasing adoption and popularity of the package, though August's data might not be complete.
