  "text": "Hi everyone!<p>I&#x27;m excited to announce px, an open source CLI application used to run commands across different JavaScript package managers!<p>Today we have multiple JavaScript runtimes and package managers, and it&#x27;s common for developers to work with more than one on a daily basis. We need to keep switching tools when working on different projects, which often results in using the wrong tool or command.<p>For this reason I created px, a small and lightweight CLI application that detects what package manager is being used and executes the command for you! This way, you don&#x27;t need to change your workflow when working on a different project, and you can focus on what is actually important.<p>It also comes with a few improvements on top of the package managers for a better developer experience, such as automatic TypeScript declarations (@types&#x2F;*) management and &quot;run&quot; prefix for npm scripts. You can find more information in the GitHub repository.<p>Please let me know what you think, your feedback would be much appreciated!",
