```js
var exists = require('fs-exists-sync');

console.log(exists('.'));
//=> true
console.log(exists(process.cwd()));
//=> true

console.log(exists('foo.txt'));
//=> false
console.log(exists(''));
//=> false
console.log(exists());

## Why another "exists" lib?

I just want a _simple replacement for `fs.existsSync`_. Here is what I found:

- [path-exists][]: Has dependencies to support a promises API
- [fs-exists][]: async only
- [file-exists][]: returns `false` if the path exists but is a directory.
- [exists][]: nothing to do with `fs`.
