pnpm is a fast, disk-efficient JavaScript package manager that uses a content-addressable store and hard links. Strict node_modules structure prevents phantom dependencies.
Reviewer scorecard
“Instant GraphQL API from a schema definition. Edge deployment and federation are well-designed.”
“3x faster installs, strict dependency resolution, and disk space savings. The best JavaScript package manager.”
“GraphQL is losing mindshare to tRPC and REST. Building a platform around GraphQL is a risky bet.”
“Strictly better than npm in every measurable way. The strict node_modules prevents dependency bugs.”
“Edge-first GraphQL with AI gateway is an interesting combination. The gateway approach could be the differentiator.”
“pnpm's content-addressable store is the right architecture. Bun's speed will push it further.”
