Why aren't Node.js package managers interoperable?
This is a real concern. I've worked on some Yarn projects where I sometimes forget and accidentally run npm. Although these package managers (I'll call them PMs for short) are interoperable to some degree, there are important differences between these tools, so you should know what you're getting into. Even in seemingly simple projects, results can vary. Here are two reports of things working with one PM, but not another. Moreso, running install once is very different from continuous concurrent use, where you're adding and removing packages and more.

React map libraries overview + react-leaflet complete installation debugging guide
React Mapbox GL A decent library, but not recommended. The original library of Mapbox is well made with great examples, but the rewrite for React is not well maintained. It barely has any examples, and there are not that much resource online. The documentation is not adequate as well. Unless you're an advanced, skilled developer, not the best option.

Shots: Create Mockups
Finding maplibre 'better' was more valid at the time than today, and is also subjective. The creators and maintainers of both libraries have done some great work (and are still doing so).
Back in January 2022, the stable version of leaflet, v1.7.1, was from September 2020, and was affected by some small bugs degrading the user experience. Although the release of following version seemed close, there was no clear schedule for it, and I had concerns about how maintained the library would remain.
As of today, the bug from 2015 where there is some white space between map tiles on fractional zoom levels [0] is still open.
Also, leaflet was a pain to integrate in Svelte Kit framework, because it depended on `window` and-or `document`, not available at server side.
Maplibre, on the other hands, with a feature set roughly equivalent to Leaflet, benefited from much more frequent releases, and seemed more stable across browsers and devices. It was also easier to make it work in Svelte kit.

Ask HN: When building with complex maps do you go with GMaps, Mapbox, OSM?
None of those things are what most in the GIS space would consider "complex", so you could go with any of the options you selected. For lightweight maps, I like Leaflet
