Get Started with pnpm

Pnpm is a replacement for npm or yarn package managers. Because it creates a local store of all packages on your machine and then creates symlinks out to directories that need those packages, it 1) saves your hard drive space and 2) is much quicker than NPM (and often yarn!), especially on reinstalls.

Nice video!
Just wanted to add that since NodeJs v16.9.0 corepack is shipped with NodeJs by default and corepack already includes pnpm (as well as other package managers). To use it one just have to enable it with the following command:
corepack enable

Then you should be ready to use pnpm without any further installations.

0:39 > _"multiple projects --> node module folders add up a lot"_

oh, so that's what ForrestKnight meant with "package management" in "things every dev should know"

Really really great discovery of pnpm 😍 and I really like your autocomplete cli (what do you use ? 😅)
Do you use an extension to have your browser in your vscode to resize it easily whereas to have both separatly ?

Really great content 🙏🙏🙏

i have been trying to install it but it doesnt want to work, it just says (in vscode) 'bash: pnpm: command not found'

1:11 does anyone know a similar alternate to python venv (virtual environments) ??
they too download / create all the deps in the project directory - which i am not a big fan of.

5:37 now, delete here is ofc not same as uninstall ...
6:17 and current directory does not _have_ any significant node modules now in the first place
... so, will npkill get rid of files from that local user folders? i.e. is npkill same as uninstall?
6:22 no, seems not uninstall, as it just deleted the local node_modules folder
does pnpm track which modules are being used? and hence, allow to remove the modules which are currently unused?

quality content as always can u make a vid on the new sass method, where u have to use @use and @forward instead of import?

[lod]

[howuseehim]

Well i have a question, when i kill vite server with ctrl c i have error: elifecycle command failed with exit code 1. I reinstalled the node packages remove the package lock file reinstall pnpm still have the error i don't have it with npm tho. What's going on 😮

[vdawork]

How would I fix problems by removing node_modules folder now))?

[patite]

For me it doesn't work. I don't understand why. I get "ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_NOT_FOUND" the lockfile is not found. Would it be possible to do a video explaining how to solve this error and how you proceed with "corepack enable"? thank you
