Pull Request: chore: remove node_modules

I don't see much of a reason to keep a copy of node_modules on the git repository considering they can be reinstalled for deployments and it is generally bad form.

Thank you for this - I'm newbie at webdev so I wasn't sure what was and wasn't needed. I'll merge this soon.

Haha, almost certainly Claude

counterpoint:

- The readme is two lines and has six words, one of which is a typo.

- Claude would never commit a node_modules folder unless coerced.

It’s disrespectful to casually call things AI-generated. I wish people would do it less unless they have 1) proof and 2) a meaningful reason for it.

I went through a bunch of the commits and didn't see a single comment.

That definitely seems human to me.

But... it doesn't use React, so how?
