Both pnpm and Yarn are independent projects maintained by the community. I personally think that these are better projects than npm CLI because they can make their own decisions. Not decisions dictated by business needs of a company.

I was OK to merge pnpm into npm in the past. They have never suggested me this opportunity. Instead, they decided to re-implement pnpm's algorithm into npm and call it "isolated mode".

I see, I tried it now, it looks great.

Most of my problems were created by the material UI libraries (I wanted to use them with SvelteKit), but I just got rid of it as those libraries were making development harder instead of helping.

I still wish there would be a nice UI library for Svelte, but I guess that's the disadvantage of not going with the mainstream frontend toolkit.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has had that experience.

Material UI (MUI for react) not just impact the DX, it also bloats the runtime impacting the UX
