Using both npm and yarn? about hackernews-react-graphql HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi, thanks for submitting an issue. The project technically uses a Yarn lockfile and docker builds using Yarn so in that regard it uses Yarn for package management. I originally wrote the documentation using NPM so a developer not familiar with Yarn can still use the project until they are ready to look into Yarn.

Perhaps the decision can be made now which to go with. Yarn is ~25% faster and can be configured for offline mode but npm is the default and has caught up in most ways. NPM is probably the better choice for maximum compatibility. What do you say?

If one of the goals of the project are to make it accessible to Node developers of all levels, then I'd suggest going with npm. And I think you're right that npm has caught up with yarn in most ways (since v5). If it hadn't then maybe I could see the case for sticking with yarn.

You cool if I make a PR changing everything over to npm (code, docs, lockfile)?

(I also wanted to add a Deploy to Heroku button and suggest a few other changes, but I'll put those in separate PRs.)

I updated it to only use npm since it's the default. The README.md recommends updating to use yarn or pnpm however
