Answer on questions

• dev Deps vs Deps:
  • Dependencies are the packages that your project directly depends on for its normal operation.
  • DevDependencies are packages that are only needed during the development phase.
• Why we have separate tooling for formatting/linting:
  • Formatting is used to make the code look consistent and more readable.
  • Linting is used to analyze code for potential errors, bugs, and code quality issues.
• Difference with VPS/FaaS?
  • VPS is a virtualized server that acts as a dedicated server within a larger physical server. It provides users with more control and flexibility over their server environment. Users have root access, allowing them to install and configure software as needed.
  • FaaS is a serverless architecture. We don't have to configure anything, just write code and deploy it.
• Why we need peerDeps?
  • Peer Dependencies is a feature that allows a package to declare dependencies that are expected to be provided by the application using the package, rather than the package itself. It is used when a package expects the consumer to have a specific version of a dependency, and it doesn't want to include that dependency directly in its node_modules folder.
• npm i vs npm ci
  • npm i installs all dependencies and devDependencies, modifying package.json, package-lock.json, and node_modules folder.
  • npm ci ("clean install") deletes the node_modules folder and installs exactly what's in the package-lock.json for consistency.
