+# The compiler, and esbuild (a development dependency) at /app/node_modules/esbuild: the builder
+# bundles every entrypoint and launcher into one file with it (novox/hq ADR 0193), so a bundle
+# carries what it imports and not this image's node_modules.
 # Beside the compiler, at /app/runtime, what every TypeScript bundle runs with: the production
 # dependencies the SDK and the runtime need, and a package.json saying the compiled files are ES
 # modules. The builder copies this directory whole into a compiled bundle (novox/hq ADR 0188 §5),
