> Yeah, in the java world you write code against specific known dependency versions. That's why when you try to build it again in a couple months, it still works. I sure wish the JS community would learn this old trick.
I've been writing JS with npm locked to specific, exact versions of dependencies since 2014, IIRC.
Not everyone does this, obviously, but the tooling has been able to at least do a decent approximation of this for a long time (and I was and am very far from being a bleeding-edge adopter).
