@dirb @matrix @proxeus at least yarn installs into $HOME subdir by default instead of /usr

@hj @matrix @proxeus and pip supports virtual environments, but people doesn't seem to care much about putting junk on their root fs. and for npm you need to hack it through environmental variables to install locally

@dirb @matrix @proxeus venv is a mess and nobody wants to deal with it. NPM needs an env variable and that's it afaik. Yarn (p.much alternative to NPM) installs to ~/.yarn or something by default. both pip and npm install into their own subdir so it doesn't really pollute other stuff, but running them as root is uncomfy, yeah.
