entropic

There has been. CJ Silverio gave a talk on that topic at JSConf this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MO8hZlgK5zc See also Entropic as a possible alternative to NPM: https://github.com/entropic-dev/entropic

Fortunately it seems to be something that Entropic gets right: https://github.com/entropic-dev/entropic If it ends up supporting PGP signatures for packages (ideally created by developers using air-gapped machines) then so much the better: https://github.com/entropic-dev/entropic/issues/86#issuecomm...

Really excited to see this play out: https://github.com/entropic-dev/entropic

I cannot wait for Entropic[1] to take off so I can just use that (and also replace my self-hosted Verdaccio with it). [1] https://github.com/entropic-dev/entropic

NPM claims to have taken the lead from Yarn in terms of install speed in the latest versions. Still, I prefer Yarn because NPM has such a history of suckage. Meanwhile, the former CTO of NPM released a new (alpha) package management system last week at JSConfEU (the conference where NodeJS was first announced); see https://github.com/entropic-dev/entropic/blob/master/docs/RE...
