npm@6.10.2 is out now
Earlier this week, npm@6.10.2 was officially released! This new version of npm fixes a lot of cache ownership issues, npm ci in the presence of local file dependencies, and a race condition in pacote.
To install it run:
npm install -g npmAnd enjoy!
Monorepos and npm
On the one hand, splitting up monolithic structures into smaller modules can be incredibly useful when it comes to creating components and microservices. But on the other hand, having all of your code in one repository can solve a whole host of discovery, access control, and versioning problems.
Read on to learn how we approach monorepos at npm in this recent blog post from product manager, Daniel Sauble.

Introducing Nodes, built with npm
Nodes is a new way to create with code. We think Nodes is cool because it was built by the folks at Variable and they used npm as a central component. Take a look at what you can do with Nodes from creating custom tools, to visually organizing your code, to building modern complex applications.
Work on the world’s largest software repository
