Introduction
Unlighthouse runs Google Lighthouse on your entire site. Instead of auditing one URL at a time, it discovers pages and audits them all, then shows results in a local UI. It needs Node 22.18 or later and saves reports to an output folder.
The source code is at harlan-zw/unlighthouse on GitHub under the MIT licence, with about 4,900 stars; the most recent commit was on 27 October 2026.
