npmx.dev is a community-built alternative frontend for the npm registry that shipped dozens of features the official site had ignored for years. A curated list of its standout features includes: transitive install size (not just tarball size), install script disclosure for supply-chain awareness, expandable vulnerable/outdated dependency trees linked to OSV, semver range resolution showing concrete resolved versions, module replacement suggestions pointing to native APIs, ESM/CJS/types badges, multi-forge repository stats, cross-registry availability checks, side-by-side package comparison with scatter plots, version diffing, release timeline with size annotations, download distribution by version, a command palette, 30+ locale i18n with RTL support, accessibility-first design, playground link extraction from READMEs, agent skill detection, AT Protocol-backed social features, and a local-CLI admin connector. The competitive pressure from npmx appears to have already prompted npmjs.com to ship dark mode. The entire project is MIT licensed, providing working reference implementations for every feature. A NuGet equivalent, nugx.org, has already emerged.
