Yep, I wish either nmpjs.com or npms.io would list the total number of transitive dependencies in their search so I could sort by it.
npmjs.com shows the number of dependencies at the top but doesn't total in dev-dependencies unless you dive in further. At first glance, npmjs.com leads you to believe webpack has only 24 dependencies when they have 52 additional dev dependencies leading to ~300 transitive deps with ~200 maintainers I now have to either constantly audit or implicitly trust[0]
