I’m curious about this too but there’s really only a few options. Npm update, etc, is the riskiest thing I do at this point, I’m extremely fed up with the state of packages and cross-compatibility.

I merely cross my fingers, if something fails, force peer-legacy install and hope for the best etc.

The only other options are:

- Don’t update, and when you do, update to an already old version not the latest

- Carefully scrutinize released updates and evaluate potential for breakages

I say this because I don’t primarily see any other options but hope we can get some more insight in the comments!
