Wombat Pride
As you may have seen, reports have been coming through telling of how (normally territorial) wombats have been not only allowing animals to take shelter in their burrows from the horrifying bush fires in Australia, but also actually herding them into their burrows for protection.
The npm organization and staff are pulling together a donation to Sleepy Burrows, a wombat sanctuary that works day and night to protect our beloved wombats. Learn how you can help, and spread the word! Thank you for your consideration and generosity. ❤️

30 seconds of code is a website that provides short code snippets for all your development needs. All of the content is community-curated, and the development team uses npm daily as part of their workflow, allowing them to parse data files, setup their pipelines and even render the whole website using Gatsby.
