  2. • Finding the most relevant script for your needs is

    not always easy • Even if you find it, it often comes at a precious price - your time NPM is an enormous database of libraries
  3. • Its main goals are related to publishing libraries •

    Still its search functionality is better than similar services in other programming environments (Packalyst, Atmosphere, Packagist) • But that doesn’t mean that NPM search is perfect NPM
  4. • Perfection is not an abstraction, but rather a native

  5. • Nodezoo.com • Npmsearch.com • Node-modules.com /it allows personalization by

    connecting to your Github account/ Welcome to NPM Search 2.0
  6. • A query with intentionally confusing word ‘block’ • http://node-modules.com/search?q=block

    • http://npmsearch.com/?q=block • http://nodezoo.com/#q=block • https://www.npmjs.com/browse/keyword/block/ Time for quick real-time presentation?
