i'm wondering if they'll end up adding a 'dependencies.json' to eliminate the boilerplate from 'deps.ts' and to simplify tooling. that'd be revolutionary! ;)

jokes aside, i wonder how import-via-url will impact tooling. having to parse arbitrary JS (or even run it, for dynamic imports?) seems like it'd make writing a "list all dependencies" tool much harder than a "dumb" JSON/TOML/whatever file would. though i guess Go does a similar thing, and afaik they're fine



Well they do have import maps! I think everyone likes shorthand package names.
