 emily | which kind of improvements? | 11:15:16 |
| emily | @tie has been working on refactoring the Node.js derivation itself to be better, but I'm guessing you're thinking more about the package managers | 11:15:41 |
 aktaboot | yeah, I feel that they're the biggest painpoint | 11:21:26 |
| aktaboot | and the fact that there are so many 'build' toolings around them doesn't help | 11:22:16 |
| aktaboot | just looking to see if there's something to look up to
I have come across this https://github.com/canva-public/js2nix but still didn't try it | 11:23:29 |
| emily | yeah I dunno. you can only make it so nice because the underlying reality is not nice | 11:37:04 |
| aktaboot | yeah that's what I felt but I'm no expert in node packaging 😅 | 11:43:31 |
| emily | there's work on improving Python, Rust, and Go packaging, but none of those have to contend with npm :) | 11:46:35 |
| emily | (PyPI isn't exactly great either, but the Python package set solves that by just manually packaging everything) | 11:46:50 |
 Lily Foster | (i mean i had npm stuff queued up but spoon machine broke and then nixpkgs machine broke...) | 12:00:12 |
| Lily Foster | (but yeah npm sucks massively in a lot of ways) | 12:00:39 |

 Emma [it/its] | question, how does one deal with an upstream switching to corepack? | 22:48:18 |
| Emma [it/its] | with future plans to switch to yarn v4 | 22:48:29 |
| Emma [it/its] | for now, i can get around with using sed in my package to remove corepack, but im not sure how that'll go with yarn v4 | 22:49:51 |
| Emma [it/its] | specifically thinking in context of nixpkgs here, for what it's worth | 22:56:08 |
| Emma [it/its] | made a discussion thread here, for what it's worth: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/274052#discussion_r1760381428 | 23:10:45 |

 Sandro 🐧 | sounds like we then need to add support to the new build helpers for that 😅 | 16:16:44 |
