Can any of the contributor report if this project is going to have any updates?
If not, please update the Readme with a "DEPRECATED" headline. Or just don't make it as simple as typing npm i swagger

Thanks for the question, @fbalhawan. The project is not deprecated, even though it's not received an update in a long time. We have some plans to revive the development of the project, but I can't share details yet (not hiding the information, it's just not concrete enough).

We are considering adding additional community maintainers to help with making some long-awaited improvements. If anyone is interested, they can either drop a line here or send me an email (email in profile). Thanks!

Is there any newer alternative to this library in the meantime?

Just started with Node.js development, I'm totally new, I saw Swagger somewhere a few months ago and I wanted to try it myself with my first project in Node, now the time came and...
I got even problems with starting a newly created example project (+express):
"Error: Cannot find module .... api/fittings/swagger_router'
It's quite discouraging, even more, if you see an issue from May #586 (comment) Not to mention npm audit vulnerabilities.
Please, I see that project (whole concept) looks awesome, but now I'm thinking if I should use it or not in my first try if I got many problems from the beginning.

I had a similar issue, now i'm using npm modules "swagger-ui-express" and "swagger-jsdoc".
