Node.js Package Support Introduced

·2018.03.07 17:00

Key point

Following Python, Replit has begun supporting third-party packages for Node.js as well.

Details

Following Python, third-party package support is now being expanded to Node.js as well. Users can now simply use packages by importing dependencies via require, without any separate configuration.

This feature is currently available in open beta, and the following features are planned to be added in the future:

  • package.json support: instead of parsing require statements, dependencies will be managed using the package.json file within the project.
  • Caching: installed packages will be cached to the corresponding repl, and global caching will optimize the speed of subsequent package installations.
