-When you use pnpm on a project, you don't want others to accidentally run
-`npm install` or `yarn`. To prevent devs from using other package managers,
-you can add the following `preinstall` script to your `package.json`:
+When many developers are working on the same project together, you need a failsafe in case someone accidentally runs commands with another package manager (like NPM, Yarn, Bun).
 
-```json
+To prevent dependency management conflicts between package managers:
+
+1. Create a file, if it doesn't already exist, named `.npmrc` at the root of your project.
+2. Write the following content into your `.npmrc`:
+
+```
+engine-strict=true
+```
+
+3. Write the following content into your `package.json`:
+
+```
 {
-	"scripts": {
-		"preinstall": "npx only-allow pnpm"
-	}
+  "devEngines": {
+    "runtime": {
+      "name": "node",
+      "onFail": "error"
+    },
+    "packageManager": {
+      "name": "pnpm",
+      "onFail": "error"
+    }
+  },
+  "engines": {
+    "node": ">=18.18.0",
+    "pnpm": ">=10.0.0"
+  },
 }
 ```
 
-Now, whenever someone runs `npm install` or `yarn`, they'll get an
-error instead and installation will not proceed.
+- Now, when you run `npm i`, `npm i -D` (or an equivalent), these commands return this error (before the preinstall script can run):
 
-If you use npm v7, use `npx -y` instead.
