I try to create new Rails 6 app. When I do this, Rails create new folder node_modules. inside it, there are many other folders (packages) that I didn't install.

1. What's the folder node_modules inside my app?
2. Why do I need it? And why do I need all default packages inside it?
3. Is it possible not to copy all these packages?
4. There are only 5 dependencies in the file myapp/package.json, and more than 700 are installed in the folder myapp/node_modules/. Why?


My path to install Rails:

download and install Node.js https://nodejs.org/en/download/

chsh -s /bin/zsh
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew install rbenv ruby-build
echo 'if which rbenv > /dev/null; then eval "$(rbenv init -)"; fi' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
rbenv install 3.0.0
rbenv global 3.0.0
gem install rails -v 6.1.0
rbenv rehash
brew install yarn

  • @MostafaHussein Just the first question. Not at all – Nikolay Lipovtsev Jan 05 '21 at 08:34
  • I guess you might be able to find the answer to each question individually. For example, this should answer question number 4: [NPM install bunch of packages not from package.json file](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40683576/npm-install-bunch-of-packages-not-from-package-json-file). – Mostafa Hussein Jan 05 '21 at 08:43
