That's correct. i'll try my best to remember to update that reference the next time i'm back on the computer.

Not a chance. We publish only vanilla JS and adamantly refuse to go down the rabit hole of supporting out-of-language tools (none of which any of our project members use). We support an "officially sanctioned" npm build, maintained by Thomas Steiner, but do not actively develop for any JS frameworks.
Direct support for any given framework (npm included) would give the impression that we endorse that framework, and endorsement of third-party projects is something we actively avoid.
A bit confused at this, NPM is just a package manager / distribution mechanism, not a framework. Totally fair if you don't want to publish for all the package managers, though for Javascript there's only a few that are relevant. NPM has been around for a decade.
It's an out-of-language packaging/distribution framework (and it's not the only one). It's not part of the JS standards.
My comments above have been edited to reframe our stance on npm and frameworks in general.
If you changed the word "framework" to "toolchain" in your post I think it would make a lot more sense to people.
Fair point but the edit window has passed ;). For the sake of clarity for those still following along: "framework," in the context of my above comments, includes any non-formally-standardized tools or APIs which are built atop the standardized core.
