I've heard of doing this, although not worked on such a project. Committing node_modules seems wild to me and I foresee issues with committing all the Python wheels necessary for different platforms on some projects. I'm a proponent of lock-file approaches, which gain 99% of the benefits with far less pain. It requires network access, though.

Yarn v2 is much better for committing dependencies than committing node_modules. However, it's problematic. Only use it if you're certain it will solve a specific problem you have. Consider using Docker to build images that include a snapshot of node_modules.
