Privjs processed 2.5million downloads of paid npm packages: Empowering JavaScript Developers Worldwide

In the world of open-source, achieving widespread usage is both a mark of quality and trust. Today, we’re thrilled to announce that PrivJs has crossed an incredible milestone: 2.5 million paid npm package downloads! This achievement is a testament to the creativity, hard work, and innovation of the developers who bring their projects to life on PrivJs.

Our Journey So Far

When we started PrivJs, our mission was clear: to create a platform where developers could securely share and monetize their JavaScript code. We recognized a need for a space where creators could not only control access to their work but also receive fair compensation for their efforts. PrivJs began as an idea to bridge the gap between open-source passion and practical monetization—and 2.5 million downloads later, we see that vision in action.

What This Milestone Means

For us, crossing this download milestone isn’t just a number; it represents thousands of developers who have chosen to trust PrivJs as a marketplace for their work. It means that 2.5 million times, a developer has chosen quality code from our marketplace to enhance their projects, knowing they’re supporting the original creators.

We’re especially honored to have leading projects like Module Federation and GreenSock Animations on PrivJs, offering powerful tools for developers to integrate into their own applications. Module Federation, known for transforming how micro-frontends operate in distributed systems, and GreenSock Animations, celebrated for its rich, performant animation libraries, have become mainstays on PrivJs, trusted by countless developers looking for reliable, high-quality packages.

We’re proud that PrivJs has become a reliable platform for developers to:

Monetize Open Source: By offering their packages on PrivJs, developers can earn from their work while ensuring only authorized users have access.
Maintain Control Over Their Code: With tools like PrivJs Safe, developers can confidently manage security and licensing, knowing their intellectual property is safeguarded.

Spotlight on PrivJs Safe

A key component of our platform’s success is PrivJs Safe. This unique feature acts as a security layer, scanning each npm package for vulnerabilities before allowing downloads. With the rapid growth of open-source software, ensuring security without compromising ease of access has been paramount. PrivJs Safe makes it simple for developers and organizations to feel secure in using our platform and reassures consumers that they’re downloading high-quality, vetted code.

Thank You to Our Community

This milestone wouldn’t be possible without the talented creators who share their work on PrivJs and the community members & organization that support them. To each of you—thank you for trusting PrivJs with your projects, for bringing your code to life in ways we couldn’t have imagined, and for believing in our mission. Your feedback, engagement, and ideas have helped us shape PrivJs into the platform it is today.

What’s Next for PrivJs

We’re more committed than ever to building a marketplace that helps developers thrive. Moving forward, we have exciting updates in store:

New Features: We’re continuously working on new features to help creators manage and protect their code better. Possibly a private git registry as well as team collaboration features. Stay tuned!
Enhanced Security Measures: As always, security is a top priority, and we’re expanding PrivJs Safe to bring even more peace of mind to our community.
Expanding the Community: We’re aiming to welcome more developers from around the globe, bringing diverse projects and expanding our marketplace.
