That's the transitive closure of their dependencies, yes. This file contains their list of direct dependencies (which is a lot smaller, but that just tells you how much of a dependency explosion you get when you use `npm` packages): https://github.com/standardnotes/desktop/blob/develop/packag... One thing to note is the yarn.lock is probably the transitive closure of the compile-time dependencies (`devDependencies`) and run-time dependencies (`dependencies`), so it's possible that the dependencies that actually ship with the application are quite a bit smaller. For example, `webpack` is in the devDependencies, which is the build tool. So the `yarn.lock` is listing all of the dependencies both for the runtime libraries that get used, but also the dependencies for all the build tooling as well.

I don’t know much about TS/Yarn, but is this really all the dependencies they have? https://github.com/standardnotes/desktop/blob/develop/yarn.l... That’s pretty insane if so. Especially for a “simple” note taking app.

The apps and server are both open source. There is also free hosting. The bit that is not open source is the "Extended" paid subscription which includes all this: https://standardnotes.org/extensions Open source is split across multiple repos: https://github.com/standardfile/ruby-server https://github.com/standardnotes/web https://github.com/standardnotes/desktop https://github.com/standardnotes/mobile
