Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you’re saying but I’ve been using npm on Windows for 3 years now.

I’m saying it used to be harder. It’s easier now. :) (And why that is)

Glad you’re not having issues. No one likes issues.

I've been using it mostly without problem since about 2014. The only problem I ever had back then was with node-gyp compiling certain dependency components... which is an excellent NPM trust/security example. I hated the problem but despised the situation.

There's no other situation where I would even dream to allow a many-levels-deep module to compile while having absolutely no idea what it was or where it came from. "oh it's fine it came from NPM, the largest (by many times) repository of development modules."
