pnpm 10.12.1 introduces an experimental global virtual store that dramatically speeds up package installations by sharing dependency instances across projects through a centralized location. The update also enhances version catalogs with new management options including manual, prefer, and strict modes, plus CLI commands for direct catalog management. These improvements build on pnpm's existing strengths in dependency isolation and efficient disk usage, making it even more attractive for monorepos and large workspaces.
