  2. …tried something similar but it breaks some packages (that check where they're located for example). https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied
  3. …by big FB. Also, I find IED's approach to speeding up builds far more novel and interesting - https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied
  4. …for our package. I'm curious about the "flattening" approach though -- and why something like ied ( https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied ) wasn't done instead. ied only ever installs one copy of a module, but allows each module to think…

  8. …and about 120MB under npm@3. Both are unacceptable, but at least npm3 helps. I want to plug ied ( https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied ) here, which both installs about 5x faster than npm@2, yet deduplicates as well as npm@3.
  9. Somewhat related, I just coincidentally stumbled upon https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied . "Upcomming Nix-inspired features", to paraphrase their README, could well prevent this debacle. (And btw, We Nix users very much do hope to start…

  10. …do so in a way that my grunt tasks no longer work (complaining about missing sub-dependencies). [1] https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied/issues/35 [2] https://github.com/rstacruz/pnpm
  11. If you are tired of waiting for NPM, I'd suggest checking out the `ied` alternative: https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied To give some perspective, I'm dealing with systems that install npm packages at scale. NPM3 has had way too many…

  16. Awesome! Glad it worked that well! Please let me know if you run into any bugs: https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied
  17. …dependencies is being installed via npm, the it installs its own dependencies via ied if told so: https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied#installation This is a "cool" feature during development, since it's a nice proof of concept.…
  18. …modules, but I'm not sure about that yet. You can also configure a private npm registry to be used: https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied/blob/master/lib/config...
  19. Damn. Didn't think of that. In fact I literally just renamed it: https://github.com/alexanderGugel/ied/commit/84628b3c871c85d... Originally it was called mpm, but I figured that would have been pretty confusing, but it looks like the new…
