torvim2596yNode to mention node modules takes up so much space. GL if you’re in any way using electron because that shit uses soooo much RAM.

@lunarfudgecake I know, I just had to delete 500mb node modules folder to make things works again ... fortunately no electron, I hate apps that use it too, like slack ecc...

I am just starting with Angular and an empty Angular project takes up hundreds of MBs because of node modules...

Froot75986y@MrCSharp Yea that's the real problem. I mean, I don't have space for that on my 1GB hard drive.

@Froot
1- 500 mb is in my qute small project case
2- I read people with node modules folder reach several GBs
3- Usually you have also some other software and files on your pc, not only node modules, specially if you work with different technologies
4- don't worry I'm glad that this should be the only annoying project, than I'll be super happy to come back to VS and .Net -
Froot75986y@dontbeevil I've never had node modules folders that big.
The node_modules meme has gotten quite old in my opinion. It must be a darn good platform if disk space is the main gripe people have with it 😄
Anyhow, glad you'll be glad 😄
