what is @angular-devkit in npm-shrinkwrap?
I was going through this boilerplate code : https://github.com/linnovate/mean
As I was trying to understand the code I learnt that:
npm-shrinkwrap lists all nested packages in your project in order to
accurately replicate the same dependencies.
I also know that web-pack is used as a module bundler that helps your code be compatible with most web-browsers. As I was going through the code I was wondering where web-pack was used... or if it was even used. So I looked in the package.json and angular.json files for the packages installed I did not see web-pack there. I then decided to search for it using the visual studio code search bar. This is where I found hits where the term web-pack was used, in npm-shrinkwrap.json. A lot of the webpack package names were under the angular-devkit dependency.
I understand that angular-devkit is produced by the angular-cli, so my questions are:
- What is angular-devkit... is it a group of packages to help in the development process?
- If a package is found in the angular-devkit does that mean it has been intsalled and there is no need of installing it via npm-i, for example web-pack? I can't see webpack in package.json but can see it in npm-shrinkwrap, is that all that is needed for webpack to work with the project?
- As a programmer do I need to understand all the files in detail. Like for example with the boilerplate code cited above do I need to understand all the files' code or just the essentials?
I know some of the questions might seem obvious but please bear with me, I am just trying to get rid of any doubts and be sure of what's going on.
Thank You.
