About published packages
You can help people understand and use your package by providing a description and other details like installation and usage instructions on the package page. GitHub Enterprise Server provides metadata for each version, such as the publication date, download activity, and recent versions. For an example package page, see @Codertocat/hello-world-npm.
您可以在公共仓库中发布包（公共包）以与企业中每个人共享，或者在私有仓库（私有包）中与协作者或组织共享。 A repository can be connected to more than one package. To prevent confusion, make sure the README and description clearly provide information about each package.
