I find that generally true of every other language except JS. You run `npm i` and all correct dependencies are installed.

- tyingq 5y agoWas not my experience. The system npm was either too new or too old for the codebase I picked (can't remember). So uninstalled, installed a different one, then some unfixable issue with something called fsevents, other issues regarding "peer dependencies", etc. Similar issues with the second one I tried. The third project I went with went much better, though it was still difficult to learn things (even if they are working) as every project seems to choose different build/deploy tools.
- davidmurdoch 5y agoSometimes I forget about npm v7-8 (the latest versions). They're "backwards compatible" if you consider "breaks everything" a form of backwards compatibility. So maybe you're right. Perhaps everything is terrible everywhere.
