Major JavaScript projects depend on a 0.0.3-versioned package now unplublished
- smt88 11y agoIt is so typical that an entire package used to do only one tiny, simple thing could break much of the JS ecosystem. There's even a comment that the package consumers can't do anything about it. How about... writing their own replacement in literally 5 minutes and removing the dependency? If you don't think the JS ecosystem is fucking insane, you should now. See: https://www.npmjs.com/package/left-pad https://www.npmjs.com/package/left-pad
