Reviewer scorecard
“3x faster installs, strict dependency resolution, and disk space savings. The best JavaScript package manager.”
“Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.”
“Strictly better than npm in every measurable way. The strict node_modules prevents dependency bugs.”
“Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.”
“pnpm's content-addressable store is the right architecture. Bun's speed will push it further.”
“The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.”
