    Yarn

    Yarn

    Yarn

    Yarn is a package manager which doubles down as project manager. Whether you work on one-shot projects or large monorepos, as a hobbyist or an enterprise user, we've got you covered. Split your project into sub-components kept within a single repository. Yarn guarantees that an install that works now will continue to work the same way in the future. Yarn cannot solve all your problems, but it can be the foundation for others to do it. We believe in challenging the status quo. What should the ideal developer experience be like? Yarn is an independent open-source project tied to no company. Your support makes us thrive. Yarn already knows everything there is to know about your dependency tree, it even installs it on the disk for you. So, why is it up to Node to find where your packages are? Instead, it should be the package manager's job to inform the interpreter about the location of the packages on the disk and manage any dependencies between packages and even versions of packages.

ActiveState’s solution provides your DevSecOps with a comprehensive view of open source vulnerability status across your application portfolio, enabling them to prioritize the vulnerabilities that matter, assess the risk of updates, and choose recommended remediation paths based on corporate policies and avoiding breaking changes. We do this by helping you understand your vulnerability blast radius, intelligently prioritize remediations, and precisely remediate what matters.
