I did not know Netlify and looked it up. I found this image [0] on their features page. Is that a joke or does their cli tool really use left-pad?

It's a joke, we don't actually use neither left-pad nor is-positive-integer...

I think it's a joke (npm doesn't list it).

I would say the next two packages were just joke names, but apparently "is-positive-integer" does exist[1]... though I suppose it might still be a more elaborate joke, but 1000+ downloads per month? The JavaScript world is simply amazing.

It's not a joke.
