Is there a way to see what code in the project actually uses these dependencies? I gave up on learning Typescript for another 6 months after a starter template dragged in 400 dependencies.

Why would that matter for learning typescript..?

If using typescript requires 400 dependencies, it’s a non-starter, and learning it is off the table until your boss forces you to.

A Microsoft template for Vue+Typescript (which I've since learned was unmaintained) pulled in 400 dependencies.

Most low effort way is to search the repository on GitHub for the require.

Also worth noting the ones I listed aren't transitive dependencies. Those are both explicit dependencies of this project
