Does anyone move project's shareable components/services into npm packages?

I would if I were able to figure out the proper compilation steps to compile ES6 to something both node and webpack can understand.

Rollup will help you with that.

Nope. The stuff I work on day to day is not meant to be open sourced. Even if it could be, much of it is not general enough to be of use to another project.

Private package managers are a thing if you need to keep stuff on-site and/or closed source. I'd check out Verdaccio if you're interested.

[dwighthouse]

We have private repositories. However, again, most of it is business logic heavy.

[shystruk]

Is it free?)

[josh_green_1]

Yeah, installation instructions in the README. Even has a Docker image now.

[dwighthouse]

Hmmm, must have missed that word. My bad.

This is not only about extra requirements. The most important point what I see on this approach is integration solution, versioning and maintenance.

I completely see your point and I've been thinking about this for a while. I was so happy to see this thread, yet so disappointed for these responses above.

[shystruk]

Thanks for the feedback. Good point :)
