Strip URL Auth

strip-url-auth is a focused JavaScript utility that removes the username and password (authentication) portion from a given URL string. It is currently stable at version 2.0.0. Developed by Sindresorhus, it adheres to a philosophy of single-purpose, highly reliable modules. Key differentiators include its minimalistic API, robust parsing for common URL formats, and its strict adherence to modern JavaScript standards. Releases typically occur when necessary for compatibility with newer Node.js versions or to address specific edge cases, rather than on a fixed cadence. It provides a simple, direct solution for sanitizing URLs for display or storage where authentication credentials should not be exposed.
