Closure Compiler
The Closure Compiler is a tool for making JavaScript download and run faster. Instead of compiling from a source language to machine code, it compiles from JavaScript to better JavaScript.
Semgrep
Semgrep is a modern static analysis (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and secrets detection platform designed for both developers and security teams. It combines fast, deterministic analysis with context-aware AI that triages findings like a senior security engineer. The AI Assistant helps reduce false positives, prioritize meaningful results, and offers clear remediation guidance. Its “Memories” feature learns from past decisions to further reduce triage noise over time.
