What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
Plugin marketplaces can now use npm as a real source, letting you install plugins from an npm registry using the form <package>@npm. Several other source names — pip, uv, cargo, github, and gh — are also now recognized as reserved names, but they are not yet available for actual use.
Why
This gives plugin authors and users a working way to distribute and install plugins through npm today, while signaling that support for other package ecosystems is planned.
