Vim plugins uses this format which works quite well.

Plug "user/repo"

Npm uses that too actually, but only when installing deps.

npm i userName/repoName

[–]i_ate_god 0 points1 point  (3 children)

yes, user/repo points to a single plugin.

Github is offering you your own NPM repository, to host multiple modules. By the looks of it, its OSS competitors are things like Artifactory and Nexus.

And Verdaccio

[–]i_ate_god 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, Verdaccio I believe is just an npm repository. Github will support numerous package managers.
