NPM has a half million packages and an insane dependency graph. Most of the packages are duplicates with minor differences. Few have any sort of test or review process. Many are completely unmaintained. Pulling code from NPM is like compiling individual functions from libc into your program, one at a time. Except that you’re pulling from a dozen different versions and releases of libc depending on the exact instant you decide you need the code.

Apps created with the Synchro platform install and run natively on mobile devices, but all application code, including client interaction logic, runs in the cloud under Node.js. Synchro has native clients on the iOS, Android, Windows Mobile, and Windows platforms: Tizen support would be much appreciated. https://www.joyent.com/blog/enterprise-native-mobile-apps-with-nodejs-and-containers Thanks, Olivier
