 Initially added in #17518

 At that time the number of third-party libraries used was pretty small.
 These days we have over a million npm dependencies. I don't have the exact
 number of "direct dependencies" but that's probably more than a hundred.

 I was wondering if we should rethink that part? Should we just highlight
 the big dependencies? How to decide if a dependency is big enough? Or
 maybe we can just remove it?
