NPM Imported Package Links - The Ultimate Onboarding Extension for Developers

Download from Visual Studio Marketplace

The Ultimate tool for Developers

This is the ultimate onboarding VS Code extension. When reading code, we sometimes come across JS/TS packages that are unfamiliar, with this extension, just hover on the imported package, and you will get information from NPM, about the current version of the extension being used, with links to the NPM package,Homepage and Git Repository.
