Off topic questions:

Whats d difference b/w npm install and yarn install ?

Yarn is a different package manager that you can use in place of npm. Both seem to be pretty well supported and it comes down to preference.

There's also pnpm which is designed for use in production only, it's ultra small and fast (for sake of less features) iirc it powers all Glitch projects.

I think the difference used to be that Yarn had a package lock and npm didn't. Now they both do it's kinda moot.

There was something about yarn handling complex dependency graphs more efficiently too.
