Yarn is a new package manager I've heard about recently (apparently announced Oct 11, yesterday at the time I'm writing this issue), and I was hoping npm-check would add support for installing via yarn. The website is https://yarnpkg.com/.

I may be wrong on this, but it seems as though yarn doesn't support global package installs. You might want to check into that and ignore the flag or whatever you use for specifying yarn install when the user is doing a global npm-check.

To install globally with yarn:

yarn global add packagename

Cool. I haven't actually started using yarn, but I was looking at it some and was considering trying it out. I figured I probably wouldn't be the only one who wanted to use npm-check with yarn, so since there wasn't already an issue for adding support, I figured I would put one in.

Support may not be necessary if they build their own updating solution similar to npm-check.

Looks like work has already begun.

yarn upgrade-interactive is now part of yarn. You can probably resolve this issue.

Note that yarn doesn't support detection of unused dependencies, and AFAICT it isn't on their radar.

If you're using save-exact, yarn upgrade-interactive doesn't show updates while npm-check does (this is a good thing).

With save-exact one can use yarn upgrade-interactive --latest, but the unused dependencies feature is quite valuable

I love this tool too much! Does yarn currently do everything that npm-check does? If so I can just drop this tool. DX I hope it isn't the case, and we can support yarn as an alt option here.

I can imagine it not being too much work to add a parameter somewhere that says use yarn instead of npm for the update strategy.
