verified May 27, 2026

node-res is a lightweight Node.js module designed to simplify the creation of HTTP responses by providing a facade over the native `http.ServerResponse` object. It offers utility methods to easily set common HTTP headers, define response statuses, and automatically determine appropriate `Content-Type` headers based on the body content. As of its latest stable version `5.0.1`, published over seven years ago in August 2018, the library appears to be in a maintenance-only state with no active development or regular release cadence. Its key differentiator is its minimal footprint and focus on direct manipulation of the response object without introducing significant abstraction layers, offering helpers for common tasks like sending HTML, JSON, or JSONP, and handling ETags. It is primarily built for CommonJS environments.
