But these are strictly package level issues, not package management.
The downside of node is the over reliance on flaky dependencies. The actual package management is good, especially compared to python.
- bayesian_horse 4y agoI don't agree. There are multiple package managers for Python which have at least comparable feature sets with npm and yarn. And in the end, pip and conda are biting me a lot less often than npm and yarn. It's not just "flakiness" of the package maintainers. The basic problem is that there is no single standard javascript package, and no package manager, especially npm can solve this.
