Open sourcing npm.net, a .NET library for the Node.js package manager (npm)

  • Article

Today I’m happy to announce the open source release of the npm.net library. This is the same library that the WebMatrix team used to implement the NPM package discovery feature as explained in Justin’s blog. The library gives developers using managed code access to NPM commands to, for instance, deploy or update node.js modules on a client machine.

We are releasing the source code of the library today so developers that are interested in building automation tools or any other sort of integration between node.js and .NET can leverage some of the work we have done for the WebMatrix team.
