Common node_modules Folder

We’re a dev shop. Have multiple projects running, few archived as well. And we’re moving into NodeJS. And Wappler is our choice of dev tool for over 2 years now.

Having a node_modules folder common within Wappler’s main directory rather than per project makes more sense.
node_modules folder does not gets pushed to GIT anyways, so it won’t matter i think.

The problem with having node_modules folder per project is that we have thousands of files redundant in our local systems and just eats away space. And having too many files would negatively impact performance in long term on SSDs as they have finite read/write cycles - a long shot maybe but every byte matter and every penny matters!

So, the request: config a common node_modules folder for all Wappler projects in a single place rather than project wise node_modules folder.
