What?

Dedupe JavaScript dependencies.

Why?

Reducing dependency duplication is beneficial in general:

  • Fewer packages overall.
  • Faster installation.
  • Less size to transfer and store on disk.
  • Usually bundle size is reduced (although this depends on which versions of packages are used).

This will likely make it easier to upgrade certain packages in the future.

This will be helpful for #61486

How?

Run npm dedupe until it no longer changes the package-lock.json file.
Fix resulting test errors.

Testing Instructions

Automated testing should be sufficient here.

It would be nice to make it harder to get into this state. Generally we don't want package duplication if we can avoid it.

I think there's a few options.

If we want this to happen automatically, it seems we can add prefer-dedupe = true to the .npmrc file, and npm * commands that update the lock file/dependency tree will default to following this policy.

If we want it to be more intentional, we could create an audit workflow that runs npm find-dupes or npm dedupe --dry-run that fails when certain criteria is met. It doesn't seem like there's a "pass or fail" response, so we'd need to find a criteria to fail. looking for a certain threshold of occurrences of change, which is prefixed for each package that would be updated as a result of dedupe.

I think I prefer the first option, but there may be some consequences of changing the strategy that are not immediately apparent.

Nice @desrosj! I think prefer-dedupe sounds like a good thing to try 👍
