My npm card 🤗

heya, i'm tierney.

a tiny bit about me personally:

• my pronouns are they/them
• i tweet way too damn much
• i live in new york city
• i play vidya games way too damn much
• i'm otherwise very online to an extreme

a tiny bit about me on github:

• i work on various things in the nodejs project
• i do some work in the electron project
• i do some work in tc39, though mostly try to focus my efforts outside of specific proposals
• i do some work on the openjs-foundation as a regular member of the cross-project council

a tiny bit about me at work:

• i work as a staff developer advocate at twilio
• i spend my time between working with product teams to improve their DX, helping coordinate various developer-facing parts of the company, and churning out open source

you can find some of my more recent blog posts online:

• Conditional Exports: Supporting both import and require()
• Implicit ESM in Node.js with "type": "module"
• Explicit ESM in Node.js with .mjs
• The New npm diff Command
• Markdown Link Checking in GitHub with Actions

bitandbang's Issues

can you add an explicit license file?

I know it is mentioned in the package.json but it would be nice to have a LICENSE file

Missing chalk dependency

Hi,

Chalk is missing from dependencies:

λ npx bitandbang
npx: installed 1 in 2.549s
Cannot find module 'chalk'

Best Regards,

Thanks for this Tierney 🙏

I made my own!

Such a simple idea! Thank you!!

I credited you on the README of my one

Let me know if there's anything you want me to change on my one 👍

Thanks for a clean antipattern of using node.js and npm

That's a wonderful example of misusing npm, node.js and Javascript.

This package contains 39 dependencies and 400kb (and 1.2 MB megabytes when unpacked to disk) of data. And all it does it making a small card in console.

Of cause, that project is more of o joke than a production code but it clearly shows why many developers despice JS, npm, Node.js and all ecosystem around it.

It could be much better if a bundler was added to remove all extra deps and make tree shake.

Boxen alternative

I made my own card using this as a template, but I wanted to do more than what boxen had to offer, so I created a fork of boxen called carden, which I used on my own card. Just putting this out there in case anybody wants to give their cards a little extra.
