I don’t get it. What does it do? How can I trust it over simply visiting https://www.npmjs.com/ https://www.npmjs.com/ (which is perfectly fine to browse)? Edit: it wants me to connect to the “atmosphere” - is this the Bluesky App Store thing? I really don’t see how linking my socials to npm search makes sense.

The word “browser” in the title also tripped me to think about an actual browser

  But it is a browser -- just not a web browser

    directory perhaps less confusing.

      “NPM registry directory” sounds terribly confusing in my opinion, reads like a grammatical mishap

        then maybe "npm registry search"?

There is no "Bluesky App Store" thing. The Atmosphere integration is an optional feature that adds a social layer on top of the registry, using the AT Protocol.
