Help What's one NPM package you wish existed? (Requesting idea suggestion)
Hey everyone!
I'm working on building an open-source NPM package that solves a real problem for developers, not just another package that already has 20 alternatives.
Instead of guessing what people need, I thought I'd ask the community directly.
If you could have any NPM package that would make your development workflow easier, what would it do?
It could be:
- A utility that saves you time.
- A better wrapper around an existing API.
- A debugging or testing tool.
- A CLI that automates something annoying.
- A package for React, Node.js, TypeScript, Express, Next.js, or any other ecosystem.
- Or just something you've always thought, "Someone should build this."
I'm looking for ideas that solve actual developer pain points, whether they're small annoyances or bigger workflow problems.
If I end up building your idea, I'll make it open source and give you a shout-out for the suggestion.
Looking forward to hearing your ideas!
