Too Long; Didn't Read
I am not an expert on either of the package managers. Contrary, until few days ago I didn’t realize that npm used a local cache. Unaware, I wrote an article titled <a href="https://medium.com/@akras14/omg-npm-clone-that-finally-makes-sense-3478588879">OMG — NPM clone that finally makes sense</a> and was called out on some of my false assumptions. That feedback forced me to take a step back and re-examine some of the differences in package managers closer.
