🧭 Context

Another experiment is updating the style of the installation block. There's too much talk these days about how much clutter we have on the page, especially for this block, so I'm trying to reduce its size

Also fixed a hydration error when a package manager is selected. The error was related to a degradation of the original behavior - https://github.com/npmx-dev/npmx.dev/pull/393/changes

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a streamlined package installation panel with copyable commands for supported package managers.
    • Added expandable additional commands for development dependencies, type packages, executables, and package creation.
    • Added security downgrade alerts with relevant documentation links.
    • Added an option to expand or collapse additional installation commands.
    • Added compact, icon-only download controls.
  • Improvements

    • Updated loading placeholders to match the new installation interface.
    • Improved accessibility announcements and command-copy interactions.

Walkthrough

The package page now uses a dropdown installation control with copyable package-manager commands, expandable additional commands, persisted expansion state, security alerts, compact download controls, and updated end-to-end and accessibility coverage.

Changes

Package installation interface

Layer / File(s) Summary
Command controls and expansion state
app/components/Package/Install/AdditionalCommands.vue, app/components/Package/Install/Dropdown.vue, app/composables/useSettings.ts
New components render install, development, types, run, and create commands. Commands are filtered by the active package manager. Copy actions announce success. The additional command panel uses persisted expanded state.
Page integration and supporting controls
app/components/Package/SecurityDowngradeAlert.vue, app/components/Package/Install/DownloadTarball.vue, app/components/Package/Skeleton.vue, app/components/Terminal/Install.vue, app/pages/package/[[org]]/[name].vue, i18n/locales/en.json, i18n/schema.json
The package page replaces TerminalInstall with PackageInstallDropdown. The change adds the security alert, an icon-only download option, a compact loading skeleton, and new command-panel translations.
Installation flow validation
test/e2e/create-command.spec.ts, test/nuxt/a11y.spec.ts, test/nuxt/components/Terminal.spec.ts
Tests expand the additional command panel before checking hidden commands. Selectors now use command test IDs and active package-manager rows. Accessibility coverage targets the replacement components, and obsolete TerminalInstall coverage is removed.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0a3d9

The redesigned install panel works as intended, but a few polish items remain: one copy button announces the wrong action to screen readers, copying the install command can silently include an extra dev-dependency install line that isn't shown on screen, copy-success feedback can appear even if the clipboard write fails, and some copy actions may announce success twice to assistive technology. These are minor, easily fixable issues that don't block core functionality but are worth addressing before or shortly after merge.

Await clipboard writes before reporting success.

These functions emit success feedback before copy() completes. If the clipboard operation rejects, the UI still reports a successful copy.

Make each function async. Await copy() before the success announcement.

Also applies to: 88-97, 102-111, 117-126

Use an accessible name for the types-install action.

The types-install row invokes copyTypesInstallCommand, but its icon-only button uses command_palette.package_actions.copy_run. A screen reader can announce a run-command action for this types-install control. Use the existing localised package.get_started.copy_dev_command label, or add a dedicated types-install label.

Make the copied command match the visible command.

When includeTypesInInstall is enabled and typesPackageName exists, copyInstallCommand() copies the main command, '; ', and a separate dev @types command. The summary row renders only $ and the main package command parts. A user can therefore copy and run a command that the summary does not show.

Display the complete copied command or copy only the visible command.
