The pnp.js file has a list of modules, not the modules themselves. The modules are still read from zip files at runtime.

Yarn doesn't do any kind of compilation itself - that would be done by build tools like webpack.




I’d be curious how “read file from a zip that I know the exact path to” performs compared to “recursively walk the node_modules directory and dynamically lookup the location of the file”.
