Remember when your entire project was like 50KB? Yeah, me neither. Now you need to install 847 dependencies just to center a div. That node_modules folder has become so comically massive it's basically a black hole that consumes disk space faster than you can say "npm install."

Modern web development: where your actual code is 2KB but your dependencies weigh more than a small car. Meanwhile jQuery is sitting there like "I was 30KB and did everything you needed" but nobody wants to hear it because we're too busy configuring webpack for the 47th time.

Fun fact: The average node_modules folder contains more files than the number of stars visible to the naked eye. Okay I made that up, but it feels true.
