npm Package Development
2024
Karen is an npm package designed to protect freelance developers against non-paying clients, by automatically reinstalling itself upon unauthorized removal and paralyzing the project if payment is not made.
I developed Karen to solve the issue of non-payment in the freelance development industry, giving developers a powerful negotiation tool through an automated solution.
My objectives included protecting developers from non-paying clients and automating project monitoring.
I developed Karen, an npm package that installs in projects, communicates with a central server, and automatically reinstalls itself upon unauthorized removal. It also paralyzes the project in case of non-payment.
Adopted by over 5000 independent developers.80% reduction in non-payment cases.
