Security Focus
Retire.js is focused on identifying known vulnerabilities in client-side and server-side JavaScript dependencies, helping developers maintain secure applications by keeping libraries updated.
Ease of Use
It provides a straightforward command-line interface and can be easily integrated with various continuous integration systems for automated vulnerability scanning.
Comprehensive Reporting
Offers detailed reports of vulnerabilities, including severity levels and links to more information, allowing developers to quickly assess and address security issues.
Broad Support
Supports multiple environments and can scan web applications, Node.js applications, and files, providing flexibility for different use cases.

False Positives
As with many automated tools, it might occasionally report false positives, requiring developers to manually verify some of the identified vulnerabilities.
Maintenance
The effectiveness of Retire.js depends on its regular updates. If not actively maintained, it may miss out on identifying the latest vulnerabilities.
Performance Impact
Running Retire.js, especially on large projects with numerous dependencies, could potentially impact the build time and performance of continuous integration pipelines.
Limited Scope
While it targets known vulnerabilities, Retire.js does not address or identify general security issues within the custom application code itself.
