Today, @types
packages are only published to the npm registry. This accounts for a large amount of traffic, in large part because of automatic type acquisition (ATA), a feature that leverages @types
packages to provide code completion (a.k.a. IntelliSense) for JavaScript users. Because this functionality is crucial for editors, it's important to provide a source of redundancy to ensure reliability. Additionally, this is a good way to give users an option to select their registry.
