@Daniel-Mendes, thanks for the effort, but why would we want this? It's a huge changelog, so we need a good reason to merge this.

Hi @martinjagodic,

Thanks for the review! The large diff comes from running the official React codemod to migrate from jsx: "react" to jsx: "react-jsx". It automatically removed the now-unnecessary import React lines across many files.
PS: I did this because of eslint errors

I agree it makes the history heavy. If you prefer, I can split this into two PRs:

• one for the pnpm migration
  -and one for the React codemod cleanup

That way, each change is easier to review.

The main reason for switching to pnpm is maintainability, not just speed. Its strict dependency structure makes it easier to detect unused or obsolete packages, avoid hidden hoisting issues, and keep the dependency tree clean. It also ensures more reliable installs and simpler future migrations.

Yes, please split into 2 PRs; these are 2 different things.

I doubt that we will accept the pnpm migration. We can detect unused packages with npm just as well. Yes, it looks cleaner to only have a version in one place and then reference it in another, but these are managed automatically by npm (and nx), so it's not intended to be used by a human. The real issue here is that we have one package for every feature, which is the real cause of stress.

The React codemod is a nice refactor. I would be glad to merge that.

And what about a migration to vite for better dev and build times, i already have a test repo, do you want a pull request too ?

If you have it already, it would be nice to see the Vite PR. But if it's a huge diff, I would be wary about merging it.

So i splitted the jsx runtime to #7647
