With a generous free tier - reserve your namespace, point your installs at it, and tell us what breaks. https://t.co/ZbWvdh6Q7x 628 views · 8 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

The registries and mirrors are GA and npm-API compatible - npm, pnpm, yarn, bun and deno all work, for both installing and publishing. Edge-served, clean installs up to 38% faster, unlimited private packages. 592 views · 4 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

We have flagged 275k+ malicious package versions. More than 25% of them are still downloadable from the public npm registry today. We block at index time, not weeks after the fact. 621 views · 8 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Querying is graph-native: 60+ pseudo selectors, ~30 of them security-focused (:malware, :cve, :vuln, :unmaintained, :license). Combine :host(local) with a version range and you can find every project on your machine still pinned to an old React. 687 views · 4 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

The client is a drop-in replacement for npm: init, install, build, run, exec, query, pack, publish, view, update, deprecate. Your whole lifecycle, no npm fallback required. 917 views · 6 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Installs are phased. vlt install downloads. vlt build runs lifecycle scripts, selectively. Known malware is blocked by default, before it can execute. Nothing runs just because you installed it. 749 views · 4 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Excited to share vlt 1.0 along with our hosted registries & ecosystem mirrors now GA! A drop-in npm replacement, built so nothing runs on your machine just because you typed install. → faster delivery → malware blocking at the registry layer → graph-native querying https://t.co
