I've heard that they are working on enabling that in a future release but for now the only package manager based off of the npm registry that can handle flat dependency trees is yarn.

- Manages dependencies
- Resolves version conflicts
- Supports a flat dependency tree
- Has an active community
AFAIK, npm already does this in later versions. So why use yarn which is unnecessary?I get that yarn may be the hot dependency manager today but a lot of people are fine with just using npm.

Eh—scratch that. It appears you still need to use yarn once you start using polymer specific components like the paper-
ones. See the comment I’ve made on the Polymer 3 slack channel.
Good, because just a few days ago, it DID mention yarn somewhere, and as a new user, I was a bit confused, because it didn't mention it everywhere. ;^) (I can't find any mention of yarn anywhere now either)
