Storing DefinitelyTyped definitions in npm

README.md

###Pros:

• npm as CDN; no more GitHub API and rate limiting
• npm provides search & indexing
• package.json provides metadata
• handles multiple version numbers
• npm is download client; simpler tsd CLI

###Cons:

###Questions:

• If a .d.ts for jQuery is updated -- for example, to add a missing method -- but jQuery has not been updated, what is the new NPM version number? "[email protected]+1"?
  • .d.ts version numbers should mirror the version numbers of the projects they're defining.
  • Adding +1, +2 to the version number looks clean and shouldn't interfere with existing projects' version numbers
• How to install multiple definition versions for the same library?

  •     "dependencies": {
           "jquery": "2.3.4",
           "jquery-old": "[email protected]"
        }
