The **dir‑exists‑safe** npm package provides small, promise‑ and sync‑based utilities (`dirExists` / `dirExistsSync`) that tell you whether a given path points to an existing directory (optionally a file) without throwing exceptions. It returns `true` for a matching directory, `false` when the path is missing or not a directory, and `undefined` for other errors such as permission‑denied, making it useful for Node.js developers who need safe existence checks in scripts or applications.
