nosoup4u2063126dWelcome to web development. Why the hell are you needing so many npm packages though? Express, React, Vue, mysql2 - those things I totally get. I can't remember the last time I used anything outside of those.

nosoup4u2063126d@Jifuna yeah, you're 100% correct. I just checked the package-lock.json for a microservice I deployed earlier this week that has three declared dependencies. There's definitely way more than three packages in there, and that means potentially millions of pictures of Guy Fieri in my shipping software. Dayum.
Why does programming with JavaScript feel like infecting yourself with and the machine with AIDS? Use a script from some random cdn here, download 46578 npm packages with triple the critical vulnerabilities there.
