This seems to be an extremely bad idea. Since everyone can edit the GitHub wiki pages, it means its registry is vulnerable to all kinds of malicious attack.
- Sander_Marechal 5y agoMany more things about thsi seem a bad idea. They're proudly making all of npm's mistakes all over again.
- moralestapia 5y agoAnd it's soooo gooood that they're doing it! The C ecosystem desperately needs an npm, it's actually coming in 10 years too late. I don't mind the naysaying. Yeah sure, "you could have done it better", but then you didn't so this is better than none. I'll take real things over illusions any day :D!
