Reviewer scorecard
“3x faster installs, strict dependency resolution, and disk space savings. The best JavaScript package manager.”
“The code quality is surprisingly good — real shadcn components, not generic divs with inline styles. Saves me 2-3 hours per UI component.”
“Strictly better than npm in every measurable way. The strict node_modules prevents dependency bugs.”
“Does one thing extremely well: turning ideas into working UI. It won't replace a designer, but it eliminates the blank canvas problem.”
“pnpm's content-addressable store is the right architecture. Bun's speed will push it further.”
“As a creator, I can now prototype landing pages in minutes instead of hours. The Figma-to-code flow is a game changer for my workflow.”
