  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • pnpm

    Fast, disk space efficient package manager

  • These stats don't even measure all the different ways that pnpm may be installed! They only measure the downloads of the pnpm npm package. This year we also added compiled binary versions of pnpm, which are shipped differently.

  • rfcs

    Public change requests/proposals & ideation (by npm)

  • The npm team decided to also adopt the symlinked node-modules directory structure that pnpm uses (related RFC).

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • volt

    An experimental package management tool for JavaScript. Upto 30x faster installation of dependencies using pre-flattened dependency trees. (by dimensionhq)

  • Bun written in Zig and Volt written in Rust both claim to be faster than npm/Yarn/pnpm. I did not benchmark these new package managers yet.
