I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

devboxes

Defensive placeholder for devboxes.sh. Coming soon.

This package is a defensive placeholder for devboxes.sh, which is coming soon.

If you installed this package accidentally, remove it:

npm uninstall devboxes

If you intended to install a different dev-environment tool or SDK, check that project's official documentation and verify the exact package name before installing anything else.

Behavior

This package has no runtime dependencies and no install lifecycle scripts. It does not run code during npm install, does not collect telemetry, and does not make network requests.

When imported or required, it throws a clear error explaining that the wrong package was installed. When invoked as a CLI, it prints the same warning and exits with status code 1.

Examples

import 'devboxes';
// throws: You installed `devboxes`. This is a defensive placeholder package for devboxes.sh, which is coming soon.

npx devboxes
# prints a warning and exits with status code 1

Maintainer note

This package exists to reduce package-confusion risk around autonomous tooling and developer-environment workflows. It is not affiliated with OpenAI, Vercel, Jetify Devbox, Microsoft Dev Box, CodeSandbox, or any third-party agent-sandbox provider.
