Jono: "That's the open source mindset. You decide what to work on. You decide when. Nobody is keeping score, nobody is checking in, nobody is assigning you work. The only thing driving you is wanting to make the project better." People do things because they care. 🤍

the heart of open source is human

Another hit of @npmx.dev. Wrote down my thoughts contributing to npmx over the past month. The future of open source is bright. jonathanyeong.com/writing/npmx...

Excited to share my first article for Free Code Camp! ✨ www.freecodecamp.org/news/learnin...

this is open source

⚠️ In 90 Minutes Npmx is creating a wave of enthusiastic support. We’re in a moment where most discussion about OSS feels pretty bleak, the joy around npmx feels unique. Maintainers @danielroe.dev, @whitep4nth3r.com , and @patak.cat share their secrets. Details:

wrote a few words on why I think @npmx.dev might be going places

The not so stealth open source project I’ve been contributing to is now out in alpha! Very grateful for the wonderful community who have made this project truly special.

To celebrate the launch of the @npmx.dev alpha, I wrote up a guide on how to make your first contribution to an open-source project. Let me know if this helps you make your first contribution (and it doesn't have to be code)!

I had no idea you could add haptics on the web!

I still have no idea what the @npmx.dev team is planning tomorrow and I'm excited to find out what's happening while we're streaming at 9:30am Pacific. watch live here:

📣 Just Scheduled Npmx is creating a wave of enthusiastic support. We’re in a moment where most discussion about OSS feels pretty bleak, the joy around npmx feels unique. Maintainers @danielroe.dev, @whitep4nth3r.com , and @patak.cat share their secrets. Details: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oISp...

code and tests aren't the moat. they never were. no need for agents to copy a project. forking was always an option. the moat of an oss project is its community, its governance, and its ecosystem connections. agents will never be able to replicate that. don't hide. let's build in the open, together

🙋‍♂️ I _could not be more thrilled_ this isn't a zero-sum game we're here to make the web better for everyone, and this is a win 🔥 props to @npmjs.bsky.social 🙏

Standard.site documentation is live ! We’re excited to share resources that broaden access to publishing on the social web. Explore core concepts, lexicon definitions, verification flow, and more. We can't wait to see what you'll build: standard.site/docs/introdu...

Not something I knew I needed. But excited nonetheless!

A reminder of one of the loveliest pairs of siblings in the dictionary: ‘muscle’ and ‘mouse’. To the Roman imagination, the flexed biceps of a (typically naked) athlete resembled a rodent scuttling under the skin. ‘Musculus’, in Latin, means ‘little mouse’.

I’ve always been on the fringes of open source but after being thrust into the @npmx.dev community exactly one week ago, I can firmly conclude that this is the stuff that has always powered The Internet and it must continue at all costs.

You can't keep up with @npmx.dev feature drops? Me too, so I made an auto-generated news website: npmx-digest.trueberryless.org This post itself may land on it, as it fetches Bluesky and GitHub for new content 🙌

Just added support for quickly searching @npmx.dev (which is absolutely terrific) to my search router! search.vale.rocks

Craving some candy - these vitamin c tablets just aren’t cutting it.

npmx leaderboard for early likers constellation can do oldest-link-first ordering now (thanks @maxh.site ) so who’s building this

Thought I'd talk a bit about npmx likes and how they work. - They are on atproto - The source of truth is from constellation 🌌. We get the total distinct did count, and if you have liked it - Likes are cached server side for 5 mins. - Uses the package url as the key to the record.

crazy how everytime i go on @npmx.dev the "built n minutes ago" is always n ≤ 11, like i've never seen it higher than that. you guys are crazy

first to like @svelte.dev on @npmx.dev

Wanna come work with me? ngrok are shortly going to be posting a position for someone to take ownership of our video content, focusing on well-researched, well-presented AI educational stuff (a la ngrok.com/blog/prompt-...). If that sounds like your cup of tea, my DMs are open 🙏

The community has really rallied around @npmx.dev. I happened to have built outputs from _long ago_ when I first pulled the repo 4 days ago. The difference is subtle but also hiding massive improvements and efforts by all involved.

You don’t need to write code to contribute to an open source project! Reviewing and testing is hugely important and always needed

@danielroe.dev is doing everything, everywhere, all at once. Truly impressive!

@npmx.dev is now in the atmosphere! social features coming soon...

This is insanely cool!

Check out @npmx.dev, “A fast, modern browser for the npm registry for power users” - @baileytownsend.dev @zeu.dev and other atproto devs are helping out in seeing what social features can be added to bring it into the Atmosphere

If you’re curious how they nerd sniped me into joining npmx to help, it was this. Lots of interesting questions of how can you integrate atproto beyond things like bluesky comments on a website if the application is not inherently atproto? Hoping we can find some good answers to these questions.

The better npm site got warnings on packages that should be avoided yesterday. Big thanks to the @e18e.dev community for making that easy!

The community is a thing of beauty. As I said a few hours ago in the chat, I'm always in awe at the caliber of the folks around us, so much to learn from everybody, a really humbling experience ❤️

Seeing @patak.dev organise and encourage a community is a thing of beauty.

npmx don't tell anyone 🤫

I'm working on adding this to a certain stealthy OSS npm package browser. Would you use this? What's missing?

I love this. atproto at its best nekomimi.leaflet.pub/3m6pcklmvt222

5 days 47 contributors 68 forks 283 commits 🔥

🔥 amazing PR just merged from @wlls.dev using @deno.land's docs package to generate docs for any package on the npm registry ....

when you collaborate in open source teams, you need to unlearn a lot of what your company work taught you

Will people have time maintaining forks of multiple open source projects? Just imagining the security burden makes me shudder. We can't slap AI on there and assume that we're done. Even if it reduces the effort. It's still more effort than having someone else maintain the project.

Doggo enjoyed today’s snow day ❄️

2026 is the year Bluesky and the Atmosphere really come alive here's what's next bsky.social/about/blog/0...

ICE, CBP, and Border Patrol have proven themselves incapable of obeying the law, let alone enforcing it for others; unable to self-soothe, let alone keep the peace. Why must ordinary people be asked to stay calm and not upset them? www.theverge.com/policy/86745...

alright folks i need help convincing someone who knows nothing of decentralised social networks that #ATproto is the future we want. What’s your pitch?
