Dependency bloat

It adds 25 dependencies to a project using Babel, TypeScript and ESLint. This is completely insane for a simple utility doing just rm -rf with globbing.
Thanks for sharing your feelings.
Why are you bundling rimraf for web browsers? 25kb is not even a rounding error server-side.

I’m not, this is just for illustration.

Size is not what I see as the problem here, the number of dependencies is.
Ok, so are you suggesting that this lib should not have a cli, should not support globs, or that all those things should be inline instead of shared deps in node_modules?

You're using babel, typescript, and eslint and you're worried about my 25 deps? Lol
Just use fs.rm if that bothers you.
