Node.js is planning to remove Corepack from its distribution after a series of community discussions and a formal roadmap by the Package Maintenance Working Group (PMWG). The roadmap includes revising the Node.js download page, separating Corepack documentation, and adding instructions for using Yarn and pnpm. The PR for this removal has received the necessary approvals but faces pushback from some community members. The decision aims to reduce the maintenance burden and allow Corepack to evolve independently, although concerns remain about user impacts.
