Yarn #5

Closed johnthepink closed 7 years ago

johnthepink commented 7 years ago

Yarn is a new way to install npm modules, and lock in the version for steadier development. It is also way faster than npm, and adds a few niceties.

It will add a yarn.lock file to the project so that we can more intentionally upgrade npm packages.

Investigating yarn. read one article weighing against npm. one mentioned advantage, speed of install (caches packages locally); also yarn.lock

-discuss advantages for this project (how else is it faster?) -open to it, want to understand value

Semaphore supports Yarn... https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install-ci#semaphore-tab (this is actually very good news. I was experiencing some very long installs with Semaphore, to the point some builds were timing out)
