# Rome Tools

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/rome-tools/  
**APIs profiled:** 0

Rome Tools, Inc. was the company behind Rome, a unified, Rust-based developer toolchain for JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, HTML, Markdown, and CSS, intended to consolidate the roles of a formatter, linter, compiler, and bundler (replacing tools like Babel, ESLint, webpack, and Prettier) into a single fast tool. Rome shipped as a command-line tool and VS Code extension rather than as a hosted web service, so it has no REST/HTTP API, OpenAPI, webhook, or event surface. The project's GitHub repository (github.com/rome/tools) was archived on 2026-07-21 as read-only, the rome.tools domain no longer resolves, and the effort has been succeeded by the community-maintained Biome project (biomejs.dev). Rome Tools was surfaced as a portfolio company of bloomberg-beta and added to the API Evangelist network as a stub; enrichment confirms it is a defunct open-source CLI toolchain with no API surface to catalog.
