On NPM the latest release is 0.6.0: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@pokusew/pcsclite
Here it's 0.8.1: https://github.com/pokusew/nfc-pcsc/releases/tag/v0.8.1

Is there a reason the later releases aren't published on NPM?

Hi @PanMan,

all releases have always been published both on GitHub and on npm. 📦

But there are two different packages:

  1. nfc-pcsc npm 0.8.1, GitHub 0.8.1 – High-level easy-to-use NFC library, it contains implementation of common PC/SC commands to support reading/writing NFC card and tags, it uses @pokusew/node-pcsclite under the hood.
  2. @pokusew/pcsclite npm 0.6.0, GitHub 0.6.0 – Lower-level library, virtually it's just bindings (Node Native Module) over pcsclite (which is an API provided by common OS, incl. macOS, Linux, Windows) to access Smart Cards (incl. NFC).

I hope this clears things up. 🙂 Let me know if you have any further questions.
