What is npmignore?
npmignore - search engine for npm but on steroids, ignoring the mess of npm
- Fully open source and free to use
- View the source code on GitHub.
Why shouldn't I use npm?
- npm is slow and not mobile friendly
- npm has a limit of 20 results per page
- Exact match is not always the first result
- No custom sorting like by dependents, downloads, last updated
Features
- Dark mode, come on it's 2024
- Full responsive and faster than npm
- 100 results per page (instead of 20 by npm)
- More results in view without npm's breaking layout
- Sometimes exact match is not the first result, but it is here
Tasks
- Add npm default sorting and include pagination
- Custom sorting (by dependents, downloads, last updated)
- Title match (package name should contain the search query)
- Exclude filters (like older packages, number of dependents or downloads)
