> As long as each dependency is listed in package.json, anyone can create a working local copy of your app - including node_modules - by running npm install.

But it is going to download the internet, will take forever, and if the network is patchy, any dependencies that weren't downloaded will remain unresolved, even if you reinstall the package, and you'll have to manually install them with the help of `npm list`, or nuke node_modules and start over, and pray that this time the network remains perfect for a few minutes at a stretch.

(someone please tell me I've got it all wrong)
