npm has A LOT of issues but generally when I do 'npm i' i installs things and they work.

When I joined my previous company, we had 300 projects and zero documentation. It took me a year to identify which node version those projects were on. And most of them were roughly the same 5 versions.

The update roadmap for each project took another two years, as things like node 12 -> node lts has been a general nightmare with so many libs being depreciated, and the great shift from CommonJS to modules.

I cannot say it "just works". ๐Ÿ˜ญ
