PKGJS-INSTALL-MINIMAL(1)

✨ NAME ✨

pkgjs-install-minimal β€” bestie, that's literally the whole name πŸ’… it's a page from the PKGJS-INSTALL-MINIMAL(1) manual, filed under User Commands, and it does exactly one thing and does it gorgeously.


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

Okay so picture this: you have a JS project, and it's got dependencies. A lot of them. And instead of letting npm/yarn/pnpm do their whole dramatic thing, pkgjs-install-minimal hooks you up using Debian dependencies instead πŸ”₯

It links or copies every single available dependency of a JS project, straight from what Debian already has on your system. No cap. That's the whole vibe.


🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -h, --help β€” print this (yes, it prints this. it's giving "help text selfie" πŸ“Έ)
  • --copy β€” copy modules instead of link them 🫢 like, actually make real copies, not just pointy-finger shortcuts
  • --prod β€” don't install dev dependencies πŸ™ˆ production only, dev stuff stays home, no tagalongs

lowkey iconic behavior: one binary, three flags, zero stress ✨

and that's the whole page, bestie πŸ’– this was pkgjs-install-minimal version 0.17.8, dated August 2026, and it's PKGJS-INSTALL-MINIMAL(1) all the way down πŸ‘‘ go forth and install minimally πŸ¦‹πŸŽ€βœ¨
