One of the hardest things in a Node project is keeping libraries up to date. Anyone who works with package management using Node knows exactly what I am talking about. In production, a project can easily scale its libraries — and consequently the sub-dependencies that come along — making the task of keeping everything updated quite challenging.

Keeping a codebase up to date can become difficult as the project grows and new features and libraries are added.

Throughout a project's lifetime, minor and patch updates are very common in libraries and, in most cases, do not cause any trouble — they are even transparent to the development team.
