Summary
In this chapter, you have learned about what it takes to publish a package to an npm registry – whether it is an official or private one. You also touched on a commonly used npm registry in the form of Verdaccio.
Equipped with the knowledge from this chapter, you should now be able to write reusable libraries that work in browser-based applications as well as in Node.js-based applications. You are also now capable of publishing tools that are based on Node.js. In a sense, these tools are just libraries with some additional fields in their associated package metadata.
In the next chapter, we will have a look at a different approach to structuring code – placing multiple packages in a single repository known as a monorepo.
