In plain words

Verdaccio is a lightweight Node.js private registry that allows teams to host npm packages locally without requiring a database setup. It includes a built-in tiny database, proxies other registries like npmjs.org, and caches downloaded modules for faster access. The tool supports community-made plugins for extended storage options such as Amazon S3 and Google Cloud Storage, making it suitable for companies wanting to use npm's package system privately.

From the sources

Verdaccio is a simple, zero-config-required local private NPM registry. No need for an entire database just to get started. Verdaccio comes out of the box with its own tiny database, and the ability to proxy other registries (eg. npmjs.org), also introduces caching the downloaded modules along the way. For those who are looking to extend their storage capabilities, Verdaccio supports various community-made plugins to hook into services such as Amazon's S3, Google Cloud Storage or create your own plugin. If you want to use all benefits of npm package system in your company without sending all the code to the public, and use your private packages just as easy as public ones.

  • npm-daycare, an NPM proxy that filters out recent & small packages2025 · github.com · ▲6

    Hey all! npm-daycare is a simple NPM proxy built on Verdaccio which filters all packages that: - are younger than 48h (it will just provide an old version instead) - have fewer than 5,000 weekly downloads https://github.com/stack-auth/npm-daycare This is in response to the recent supply chain attacks that shattered the JavaScript ecosystem [1]. It's likely not a problem that will go away any time soon, so we figured we'd build something to protect against it. Doing this on the proxy layer means it will work across the entire system, as proxies are set globally. In the…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
