Meet PNPM: The Faster, More Performant NPM
- PNPM: Hold all the packages at a global, centralized store and use them if needed by other projects too by creating hard links to it.
- Saves disk space, faster to install packages, in-built support for mono-repos.
- NPM: We can’t reuse dependencies already installed for another project in NPM.
- Content-addressable store is a storage mechanism where the data is stored on hard disk by assigning a permanent location, and addressing it with a unique identifier.
