- krapp 7y ago>and you can easily opt out of the ecosystem You really can't. There is no JS ecosystem left to speak of beyond Node and NPM.
- tlb 7y agoYou can. You just have to write your own code instead of using NPM. Node itself comes with a few libraries, but they are fairly minimal.
- krapp 7y agoFair enough, but that's not an ecosystem, and every JS library is currently written assuming it will be pulled in with NPM, as are all Javascript tutorials. You can avoid it all, but at some point I would have to wonder if it's even worth the effort.
- username90 7y agoLike, write your own database connectors and all other such stuff?
