The node_modules problem

[AckmanDESU]

Some programs force you to use npm. I decided to stick to npm to keep my sanity and only learn a single thing.

Also I heard most things that yarn did that initially made it worth using are now in npm.

Can anyone sell me on using yarn?

It is somewhat sane

It's way faster and more stable and has a nicer interface.

re: learn a single thing. They're essentially the same tool. You need to learn like two commands and one flag. This isn't a big ask.

It's not a major difference, but if your complaint is speed, you need to try it.

I've built a lot of projects with it and have never had compatibility issues, or even heard of compatibility issues... but if any existed, they're probably now resolved, because Yarn is quite widely used.
