Dependency management with npm #321

i.e. package.json instead of a shell script that downloads an ancient zip file

would be much easier for distributors to package too (e.g. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snap4arduino)

Hi @joelsgp Thanks for your report. You are right. But the issue here is that Snap4Arduino is planning to skip node.js and offer a single web version, using firmata under the WebSerial API.

I keep your issue opened to track this. It will be closed when dropped from node.js dependencies. And if we take too long, we reconsider this realignment later.

Closing this... Version 9 (before Christmas) will be (still) a node built. But we will be working to move all the features to a custom Snap! library (without a desktop app).
