Technical debt refers to incomplete or temporary workarounds that allow us to speed software development in the short term at the cost of paying a higher price later on. Recently, studies have shown that technical debt can be detected from source code comments, referred to as self-admitted technical debt.
$ npm install --save technical-debts
const detectTechnicalDebts = require('technical-debts');
console.log(detectTechnicalDebts('./example_packages/calculator'));
