nickradfordon LiftKit – UI where "everything derives from the golden ratio"

Hey! I didn't realize this wasn't even posted by the creator of the library. Building shit and launching is hard, don't let it dissuade you from putting stuff out there though!

nickradfordon NPMX – a fast, modern browser for the NPM registry

It is really annoying if you have a package that is relatively new to the platform, and you type in the exact package name, that package is not reliably the first result.

Minor edge case, but infuriating if you want to check your own packages quickly (without needing to navigate menu > packages > YOUR_PACKAGE).

Still agree with you though, who is npmx actually for?

nickradfordon Fig now supports JetBrains IDEs

And before you try it, no I'm not an employee and I'm not a shill. I don't use Fig, though I had a preliminary interview with them last year and they took 3+ months to get back to me, so...
