Isn't this a straight up rip-off of https://smartcar.com/?

I don't think so. We have a very different take on connected cars. We are 100% EV focussed and are building tools on top of the car API to solve actual EV challenges like range anxiety and charging management that were absent in ICE vehicles!

I added one; it should be available in ~10 minutes once Github's and Cloudflare's caches propagate it.

Just to be pedantic: Bitcoin uses sha256, and not sha1.

Isn't that the whole reason there is a package.json? That way, people just run npm install and already have all the necessary dependencies.

Yes, a package.json is good to get the required dependencies. This article is about possible dependencies that help in cases where you all the possible would mean a huge load on the system.

If you can use a package without them then they aren't really dependencies are they?

True, how should those things be called?

A good example is Consolidate, which provides a consistent API to various template libraries. You wouldn't want to force installation of all the unused libraries.

Will add a link to the "other problems" list, thanks!

How is it a huge load on the system given that node can lazy load modules? Do you mean disk space?

Exactly! My first attempt was just 10 lines of HTML code, but it was a real pain to do the vertical centering on iOS. So I tried a Bootstrap template, saw that even they didn't do the centering on iOS, but was too lazy to change it back.

Modern iOS should support flexbox, which should get you what you want with a few lines of CSS. http://caniuse.com/#feat=flexbox

Or you can throw this in a table and be done with it.

Haven't you heard? Only noobs use tables. Also your design totally won't scale and isn't internet grade :)

IE8 support brotha

iOS does, but it is a bit funky sometimes and has some weird bugs.
