Feature #1066
closedPackage Manager for JavaScript Libraries
Description
Currently all JavaScript Packages and libraries are added and updated manually.
As there are viable tools to automate this available for Python as well, we should attempt to document the current state and implement an automated solution.
Possible Candidates: CalmJS / NPM
Pro: we could omit most JavaScript from the current dist, and install from source
Caveat: we have some manually edited libraries we need to maintain in their current state

I tested it online and run into several issues:
I had to install calmjs:
$ pip3 install calmjs
After that I had to call it with the full path, e.g. in my case:
$ /home/alex/.local/bin/calmjs npm --install openatlas
Also all tables, tabs, ... didn't show so maybe it didn't work at all because with the above command I got:
npm does not support Node.js v10.15.2 You should probably upgrade to a newer version of node as we can't make any promises that npm will work with this version. Supported releases of Node.js are the latest release of 4, 6, 7, 8, 9. You can find the latest version at https://nodejs.org/
