npmx Streamlines CI and Gains atproto Momentum
Infrastructure & CI Optimization
Executed a major cleanup of the CI pipeline by migrating from Corepack to pnpm/action-setup. This change anticipates Node.js's removal of Corepack and successfully fixed a long-standing issue with dependency caching. Additionally, happy-dom was removed in favor of native Vitest Browser Mode, and linting workflows were reverted to explicit oxlint/oxfmt calls for better stability.
atproto & Social Integration Buzz
npmx is gaining significant traction within the atproto ecosystem. Reposts from the official atproto account and key developers highlight the platform as a 'fast, modern browser' that is being positioned as a 'back door' for bringing decentralized social features into mainstream developer tools.
UI Accessibility and Mobile Readability
Enhanced the large download charts for mobile by removing cluttered X-axis labels and increasing scale font sizes. The version selection UI now explicitly calls out the 'latest' version, ensuring it remains prominent even when deep in a version list. Markdown rendering was also enabled for deprecation notices to improve technical clarity.
Localization: Polish Support
The platform's linguistic reach continues to expand with the addition of a full Polish translation, bringing npmx one step closer to complete global registry coverage.
