Run the dependency installer that handles the tiered monorepo structure.

./tools/pub_get.sh

Installs dart pub get and npm install across all packages and examples in dependency order:

Tier 1 (Core): dart_logging, dart_node_coverage, dart_node_core, reflux
Tier 2 (Packages): dart_jsx, dart_node_express, dart_node_ws, dart_node_better_sqlite3, dart_node_mcp, dart_node_react, dart_node_react_native
Tier 3 (Examples): frontend, markdown_editor, reflux_demo/web_counter, backend, mobile, jsx_demo

Order matters because Tier 2 depends on Tier 1, and Tier 3 depends on both.

Report any failures. If a package fails, it's usually because:

A dependency in an earlier tier hasn't been published yet (use dart run tools/switch_deps.dart local for local dev)
npm packages need npm install in a subdirectory (e.g., examples/mobile/rn/)
