Are you referring to JS dependencies in the core libraries (stuff like Effect, Aff, etc) or in community packages (or just everything)?
- throwaway81523 5y agoEverything I guess. From what I can tell, it's not possible to build or install purescript without also installing the whole npm universe, which is a bug-addled security nightmare. So I spent a while on the purescript website but have never actually run it. I might install it on a bare vm sometime. I don't want it on any machines that I actually use.
