NPM >= 7 installs peerDependencies by default except if they are marked as optional (according to this). Since we don't need certain dependencies in the
initcommand and they are already included in the templates, we can stop installing them at the beginning whennpm create @shopify/hydrogenis called, and install them in the background later together with all the other app deps.@remix-run/devalone is ~119MB so this should hopefully speed up installation times.The best way to test this will be when it's merged by using
npm create @shopify/hydrogen@next. However, you can also test locally by renamingnode_modules/@remix-run/devto a different name and runningh2 init(or other commands to see the error).
