I can see this being nice especially with slower connections.

@filipesilva I would like to give it a shot.

[filipesilva]

@narainsagar go for it 👍

Bear in mind this might be especially hard given that different versions of npm display progress in different ways, and so does yarn. I don't even know how other package managers deal with it.

This isn't something we'd like to add if it's a massive undertaking though, so if you see it's non-trivial just let us know.

@filipesilva Thanks. Yeah sure - will let you guys know here. Since I also don't know much about how all package managers are exactly doing this.. So will study and share my findings here. Thanks for your positive response 👍
