"at the cost of some npm shenanigans"

jDeploy developer here. No shenanigans, I swear. npm just simplified things. Some have expressed interest in adding self-hosting options, so I'll likely add support for that. It's open source too, so others could potentially add other hosting options also.

Yeah sorry I didn't mean anything underhanded, it's just a complication that made me reluctant to try it out initially. Honestly if you wanted to offer a whole turnkey commercial service with hosting and analytics and stuff I could imagine being drawn to that.
