One of my least favourite things about the NPM eco-system is that it doesn't have support for name spacing, i.e. package names are global. I think this is one of the things that Composer (PHP's equivalent of NPM) does very well [1]. Personally I'm not to worried about the size of my node_modules since it doesn't reflect what gets transpiled into the target anyway, but yes, if you have a bunch of projects sitting on your hard drive, it can get a bit busy.
