When I made this package I was quite inexperienced, and truthfully I downloaded whatever I felt like at the moment. Over time this has caused some major package bloat. It has come to the point where ReplAPI.it for NodeJS is 7.05 MB in size, which is... disturbing. To decrease package bloat we could:

  • Remove unnecessary dependencies
  • Homebrew some packages and utilities
  • Use a module bundler, uglifier, and tree-shaker (Rollup is what I had in mind)

I'll fix this in while working on the refactor.

3fe492a removed all dependencies that I was worried about and used some different packages with smaller footprints. I'd say all in all this issue is now resolved.

Post-closure I created a beta version (2.4.0-beta.2) and checked the package size: https://packagephobia.com/[email protected].

7.05MB to 4.65MB has some serious gains! Looking to drop more if possible.
