About pkgsearch

pkgsearch is a working developer's index of npm + PyPI + crates + go-modules. Last-publish date, security advisories, bundle size, license — surfaced together so you can ship.

What we do

We make it easier for working operators to compare packages at decision time. For every entry in our index we maintain:

• A profile with documentation, pricing, supported regions, and integrations
• Side-by-side comparisons with the closest alternatives
• Use-case recommendations across 12 categories (javascript / npm, python / pypi, rust / crates.io, go modules, and more)
• Pricing comparisons with as-of dates and source citations
• Migration guides between popular pairs

How we're funded

pkgsearch is operator-funded. We are not paid by vendors to be listed, ranked, or recommended. Our editorial framework is documented in our methodology. Where we do receive revenue from recommendations (rarely), it is disclosed on the page in question per FTC guidance — see our disclosure policy.
