If you're on macOS, slightly techy, and want a very easy way to download all your Amazon #Kindle books, I can strongly recommend this tool by @treetrum. Uses #BunJS, super fast, even shows progress bars for the downloads!!

(On Feb 26, Amazon will stop allowing ebook downloads through a browser.)

People versed in Javascript/Node.js package managers (npm, yarn, and company): Is there any reason that a lockfile *shouldn't* be committed to a repository?

I'm usually *for* committing lockfiles, but I've noticed some people in the JS ecosystem don't include them for reasons that are unclear to me.
