Release Date for the Versions!

[aadrian]

Would be very helpful to have release dates for the versions too.
This way it would be easier to spot problematic depencencies or other issues.

Thank you.

From what I've seen, npm doesn't keep track of the date a package was published.

Yes it does.

See the version history tab https://www.npmjs.com/package/ink?activeTab=versions

@styfle Ah. Is there a way to get the release date for a version through an npm command or a servlet? Parsing the web page wouldn't be much fun.

Yes it’s part of the registry API.

Here’s some example code https://github.com/styfle/packagephobia/blob/master/src/util/npm-api.ts
