This is something I've had to explore at work, and I'm settling on scheme for a back-end and HTMX for a front-end if one needs fancy things that can't be pulled to the back-end. My point is, for interface facing stuff, one could try and keep that javascript to a minimum---Javascript fatigue anyone?---and consequently, one would not have to worry about NPM and friends. Just my 2¢s. -- (Life is like a pencil that will surely run out, but will leave the beautiful writing of life.) (D4F09EB110177E03C28E2FE1F5BBAE1E0392253F (hkp://keys.openpgp.org))
