AWS Elastic Beanstalk automates Node.js application deployment but has specific behaviors around dependency installation that can cause issues, especially with monorepos. Understanding when EB installs dependencies vs when it skips installation is critical for successful deployments.

Core principle: Choose between letting EB install dependencies (smaller packages, slower) or bundling nodemodules (larger packages, more reliable).
