About the Developers Team

The "developers" team is automatically created when you create an organization. By default, the developers team has read/write access to all new packages created under the organization's scope.

• Members added to the organization, including the organization owner, are automatically added to the developers team
• Any newly created packages under the organization scope are published in the developers team
• If an owner adds a new member to an organization and does not want that member to be on the developers team, an owner can remove them

Note

Note: The developers team can no longer be removed from an organization for the following reasons:

It is the source of truth for all users, packages, and default permissions in an organization. When you want to restrict write access, it is almost always better to set the default permissions to read-only and create separate teams for managing write permissions.
