They can still delete the package from NPM can't they?
- josephcsible 5y agoNot usually: https://docs.npmjs.com/policies/unpublish https://docs.npmjs.com/policies/unpublish
- dvdcxn 5y agoEven if they did they're not 'breaking your app in minutes', as if all live apps which use that package are suddenly going to poll npm for deleted packages. That's absurd.
- ehnto 5y agoOf course that's absurd, that's not really the core of the argument though. I would still consider it breaking my app if I now need to go replace that package somehow, or pull it from some archive, before I can re-deploy my application.
