### About published packages
You can help people understand and use your package by providing a description and other details like installation and usage instructions on the package page. {% data variables.product.product_name %} provides metadata for each version, such as the publication date, download activity, and recent versions. For an example package page, see [@Codertocat/hello-world-npm](https://github.com/Codertocat/hello-world-npm/packages/10696?version=1.0.1).
{% data reusables.package_registry.public-or-private-packages %} A repository can be connected to more than one package. To prevent confusion, make sure the README and description clearly provide information about each package.
{% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" %}
If a new version of a package fixes a security vulnerability, you should publish a security advisory in your repository. {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} reviews each published security advisory and may use it to send {% data variables.product.prodname_dependabot_alerts %} to affected repositories. For more information, see "[About GitHub Security Advisories](/github/managing-security-vulnerabilities/about-github-security-advisories)."
{% endif %}
### Publishing a package
You can publish a package to {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} using any {% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" or currentVersion == "github-ae@latest" %}supported package client{% else %}package type enabled for your instance{% endif %} by following the same general guidelines.
1. Create or use an existing access token with the appropriate scopes for the task you want to accomplish. For more information, see "[About permissions for {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}](/packages/learn-github-packages/about-permissions-for-github-packages)."
2. Authenticate to {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %} using your access token and the instructions for your package client.
3. Publish the package using the instructions for your package client.
For instructions specific to your package client, see "[Working with a GitHub Packages registry](/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry)."
After you publish a package, you can view the package on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}. For more information, see "[Viewing packages](/packages/learn-github-packages/viewing-packages)."
