Configurable `node_modules` folder name.

[Gn3po4g]

What is the problem this feature would solve?

an alternative name for node_modules.

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

expose a configuration to set name of node_modules, like bun_modules or .modules.

What alternatives have you considered?

This would be a very expensive decision in performance and in ecosystem compatibility

What value would it provide?

[Gn3po4g]

For example, a configuration

[install]
location = 'bun_modules' //default node_modules

I don't think it would make a big difference with the default value of node_modules.

The reason I suggested is that the filename node_modules is a bit strange if you develop with bun environment.

I guess it doesn't matter)

node_modules is defacto standard We also download from Node Package Manager

npm does stand for "node package manager". Please stop falsely correcting people on this. read: https://x.com/rough__sea/status/1778377222597816536

Unrelatedly (or perhaps, back on topic), this proposal seems pretty short-sighted. I haven't seen a usecase for this irl.
