Have you ever wondered how deleting 11 lines of code could break the internet? In this video, I’ll explain the story of left-pad, a tiny NPM package that caused a huge chaos in the web development world when it was removed by its author Azer Koçulu. You’ll learn what left-pad does, why it was so popular, how it was deleted, and what consequences it had for thousands of projects that depended on it. If you’re interested in web development, JavaScript, or NPM, your might want to re-consider what you add to your dependencies.
