Node nor any other package managers are included with JS. You seem to be emphasizing their point.
- svnpenn 4y agohuh? Node is a JavaScript runtime. Its the "base thing". Its "JavaScript", at least in the sense that we are talking about here. So saying "Node isn't included", doesn't really make sense. When you install Node, you also get NPM, which is essentially what I said in the previous comment.
- tmh88j 4y ago> When you install Node, you also get NPM, which is essentially what I said in the previous comment. The other person said that JS also doesn't include a package manager. It sounds like you wanted to take issue with the colloquial use of NPM rather than their point about package managers not being included. > I also don’t believe a bundled package manager is necessary — NPM isn’t bundled with JavaScript, and it seems to be doing ok.
- svnpenn 4y agoNo, what they said was: > NPM isn’t bundled with JavaScript which, if you install Node, NPM is included
- tmh88j 4y agoNode isn't included with JavaScript. No package managers are included with JavaScript. You're splitting hairs about Node/NPM which is completely irrelevant to their point about JavaScript not having package managers built in.
