Typed from end to end

One import.
Exact answers.

Literal inputs keep literal outputs, so your editor knows the exact name and message—not just string.

response.tsTypeScript
import { Status, getStatus, isSuccess }
  from 'http-status-lite';

const status = getStatus(404);

status.name; // 'NOT_FOUND'
status.message; // 'Not Found'
isSuccess(Status.NO_CONTENT); // true

Exact generated types

Literal-preserving lookups and unions generated from one reviewable registry.

Safe at the boundary

Parse, validate, assert, and narrow unknown status values at runtime.

Small by design

Import only constants, predicates, or metadata through tree-shakeable entry points.
