In this session, we’ll talk through the implications of NPM joining the GitHub family for JavaScript developers, and how to get the best out of GitHub for both your open source work as well as your work inside your organization.

GitHub Satellite: A community connected by code

On May 6th, we threw a free virtual event featuring developers working together on the world’s software, announcements from the GitHub team, and inspiring performances by artists who code.

  1. Minor correction: at 11:00 – "^0.4.0" does not allow minor updates. The caret "Allows changes that do not modify the left-most non-zero digit" (from the npm docs).

    I guess this is why npm recommends not publishing anything below 1.0.0 – the rules are not well known, and also "Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable." – from the semver spec point 4.
