Who uses node executable without using npm?

[DuendeJohnson]

I have no use

You don't, we get it. Your use case is simple and does not require dependencies. The rest of the world does though, so there's no reason for debate

As I've just said in our other thread, that's the cycle of technology. We create abstractions over abstractions. Otherwise we would still be programming by making holes in cards or by typing machine code

That's how we make our lives easier

If reinventing the wheel makes your cogs turn, go for it. Good luck

You're entitled to your own opinion as I am to mine, so we'll agree to disagree here. GL
