`cliffy` is different from the other solutions listed here as it creates REPL applications. Instead of a single executable that is run with different arguments, `cliffy` creates applications that interactively respond to user input to run multiple commands. It doesn't necessarily aim to satisfy the [clig.dev](https://clig.dev) guidelines as it is a different user experience, but its similarity to the other options warranted its inclusion in this list.

### [`yargs`](https://yargs.js.org/)

`yargs` is a powerful and flexible library with a simple API. It supports commands and grouped options, dynamically generated help menus, and bash-completion shortcuts. It has been adopted by some in the the Node.js ecosystem, with extensive documentation and community support.

It requires installing plugins and manual configuration to get TypeScript support, and the API is not as type-safe as Stricli. It also has a large number of dependencies, which can be a concern for some users.
