The month. npmx

npmx - a fast, modern browser for the npm registry. You've definitely heard about this project, and it’s probably got you just as excited as it has me. We've had a month of exciting and invaluable experience, and we've got some crazy plans ahead. I'm Alex, a project maintainer and one of the many who have been lucky enough to witness the formation of npmx from the front lines. This is an article reflecting on the project, warm stories, wonderful people, and, of course, a look into the future. I hope I can convey this marvelous experience and give you the opportunity to feel it with me.
