  • npmprune

    Prune unnecessary files from node_modules

  • pnpm

    Fast, disk space efficient package manager

  • I use https://pnpm.io whenever possible. It has many benefits, the main one is that the node modules are symlinked to one big repo in your home directory, so there isn’t nearly as much duplication.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • express-rate-limit

    Basic rate-limiting middleware for the Express web server

  • I think the readme gets included automatically even if you don't specify it in the files field, ditto for package.json.

    Compare https://github.com/express-rate-limit/express-rate-limit/blo... to https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-rate-limit?activeTab=c...

    Agree with you about the other points.
