I didn’t really find it clickbait. It’s not unusual for a complex react app to have 600+ mb in dependencies, and at work I have at least 50 repositories checked out at once. 50gb may be a bit of a stretch for most users but I imagine multi-gig savings to be fairly common! We’ve moved many of our projects over to pnpm.
- stingraycharles 4y agoBy that metric OP would need to have almost 100 complex react projects checked out to reach the 50GB number. Seems highly unusual to me.
- seba_dos1 4y agoNot really. Some dependencies can be heavy. As soon as your projects include, let's say, electron, you're having ~200MB consumed by a single dependency on top of anything else used by your project. And if you had your node_modules populated by older npm version, you may have multiple copies of that dependency within a single project.
