Not only this. Try to change the app two years later. Dependencies gone, wrong NPM version, Webpack config depricated and what not.

That's why I like to use vanilla JS as much as possible. It will be maintainable years later.

After a recent FF upgrade, it balked at JS that worked fine for years ... on occasion, not always ...because: navigator.onLine === true, internet.connection === false.

Yes, if you don't fix your dependencies. But that will happen in any language.
