That Github they linked in the article with 1,600 (!!!) dependencies. Out of all of the programs ever written, this is certainly one of them. I am sorry to the programmer and this is not meant to be a slight on them, but holy moly.

- wahnfrieden 3y agoThat’s not high
- crooked-v 3y agoI think it's fair to note that a huge chunk of those come from react-scripts (and its own dependency Babel), though. I would bet that only a small fraction of all the depedencies are ever actually included in the output of the build.
- whstl 3y agoYes. Out of the 1600 packages, just looking at package names: 227 are related to Jest, 167 are related to Babel, 93 are related to PostCSS, 66 are related to Webpack, 47 are related to Firebase, 43 are related to Webpack, 24 are related to Workbox. There are even more packages that are related to those but whose name doesn't include the main product. These multi-packages, in 90% of cases, are all maintained by the same people and often live in the same GitHub repository.
