What to do if you depend on popper.js

npm reports that popper.js is deprecated by its maintainers. That flag is the strongest signal a registry gives: the people who publish it are telling you to stop using it. Their own note reads: "You can find the new Popper v2 at @popperjs/core, this package is dedicated to the legacy v1" If that note names a replacement, that is your migration target. Pin your current version so nothing shifts under you, then plan the move on your own schedule rather than waiting for a build to break.
