Christine had that great summary of the npm mess at the time: https://dustycloud.org/blog/javascript-packaging-dystopia/ With all its shortcomings, I think it would still be useful to merge Jelle’s npm importer (the “binary” importer), as discussed last year: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2021-09/msg00245.html Thumbs up to whoever submits it for inclusion! :-) (I won’t answer on ‘devDependencies’ issues because JS is outside my area of expertise.) Thanks, Ludo’.
