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.

sndrec (the author):

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.

    Author claims this was made in 5 days on twitter. Nobody knew about this project until they released it and their inital commit contains 200,000 lines of code. Curious

      `tokei --exclude node_modules` says only 40k lines, but yes point taken. 40k lines in 5 days is unrealistic for a human unless we're talking about Fabrice Belard (or the 40 people in a trench coat pretending to be him).
