Under certain circumstances, yes.
If you really know the shit you do, probably equal the clusterfuckness as other languages. -
nitnip18153yWhat do you mean by that? It adds super reasonable dependencies to your node_modules folder like is-three, is-not-five and is-ten-million!

gof6yogy233yNot sure what you mean, 1.5GB dependencies for the groundworks of a project sounds perfectly reasonable to me.
Unless you are on 12GB of RAM and trying to build Docker images from that; WSL please learn to give me my memory back if you don't need it anymore... -
gof6yogy233y@AvyChanna nono, just the node_modules directories of frontend, backend and ui combined!
I'm curious what would happen if I moved away from Yarn workspaces so dependencies could not be hoisted! Aaaaaaaah, the wonderful world of webdev :)
In Node's (slight) defense though, it was my idiotic idea to build a complete stack with TypeScript. I have learned my lesson but oh sunken cost fallacy!
