DEFINITELY NOT PRODUCTION\n\u003e READY, AND MAY NEVER REACH FRUITION!\n\n## Why a new registry?\n\nThe state of Node.js, npm, and the `node_modules` folder is a complete mess, especially for package\nowners, but also for package consumers. With the introduction of ESM, the `.cjs` and `.mjs` file\nextensions, the dual-package hazard problem, competition between npm, pnpm, and yarn, and much more,\nthe ecosystem is in a state of chaos. This is further exacerbated by TypeScript, its high number of\ncompiler options, the `.cts` (`.d.cts`) and `.mts` (`.d.mts`) file extensions, module resolution\nwoes, and other TS features.\n\nThe overhead of publishing a package is far too great, and there's no solution in sight. Instead of\ntrying to \"fix\" the state of things, espresso is a complete reimagining of how everything can work\nin a modern world.\n\n### As a package author\n\nAuthor your packages in modern ESM. Packages and their source code are published as-is, as packages\nare compiled on-demand for consumers. No longer are you required to pre-compile packages before\npublishing, nor fiddle with `package.json` configuration (especially `exports`), or worry about deep\nimports, or the dual-package hazard problem.\n\n### As a package consumer\n\nWhen consuming packages, tailor them to your exact requirements, by requesting all dependencies in a\nspecific compilation target. The days of mismatching module systems and incorrectly compiled\npackages are over.\n\n```toml\n[install]\ntarget = \"es2016\"\n```\n\n## Why the name espresso?\n\nespresso is currently a codename until I can think of something better, but there are a few reasons\nfor it. The current binary is named `espm`, which stands for EcmaScript Package Manager, and since\nthe first 3 letters align with espresso, and JavaScript is already a coffee themed name, it made\nsense!\n\nBut why not simply call it espm? Well, there's more than just a package manager, so using that\nacronym for other services doesn't make much sense. We could also use esp, or espackage, or\nsomething similar, but... branding?\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmoonrepo%2Fespresso","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmoonrepo%2Fespresso","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmoonrepo%2Fespresso/lists"}
