AUTH NONECORS ✓AGENT ✓HTTPS ✓COMMERCIAL ?

The public npm registry answers plain GET requests for any package name and returns its full document: versions, dist-tags, maintainers, dependencies and more. No token is needed for reads and responses are CORS-open. Great for build tools, dashboards, or just checking the latest release of a library.

npm Registry: common questions

Is npm Registry free to use?

Does npm Registry need an API key?

No — npm Registry needs no API key or signup. You can call it straight away; rate limits still apply (Unpublished (bulk scraping discouraged)).

Can I call npm Registry from the browser?

Yes — npm Registry returns CORS headers over HTTPS, so front-end code can fetch it directly with no backend proxy. Use the fetch snippet on this page, or hit "Run live" to try it now.

Is npm Registry up right now?

As of our last scheduled check, npm Registry is unmonitored. We re-probe it every sweep — the status badge and uptime chart above always show the latest.
