npm status page logs brief outage
npm experienced an incident on April 27, 2026 that made the www.npmjs.com website unavailable. The status page says the team began investigating at 21:06 UTC, posted an update at 22:28 UTC, and marked the incident resolved at 22:30 UTC. The outage appears limited to the website surface rather than npm’s package installation, publishing, search, security audit, or replication systems, which were shown as operational on the status page.
// ANALYSIS
This looks like a short-lived infrastructure or edge-layer failure, not a core registry meltdown.
