Netlify has now integrated support for pnpm, a popular alternative Node.js package manager known for saving disk space and speeding up build times. This integration allows developers to share dependencies across multiple projects with ease, making it easier to manage monorepos. The implementation uses Node Corepack, providing flexibility for future additions of new package managers. To use pnpm with Netlify, users only need to check in a `pnpm-lock.yaml` file and let Netlify automatically detect and run the command, caching artifacts for performant builds. This replaces previous workarounds that required disabling npm or updating build commands.
