That particular PR is still a draft one, to facilitate collaboration for
things relating to the javascript team; once that branch stabilizes,
which could be anywhere from Real Soon to some weeks, we're going to
join the merge queue (see https://qa.guix.gnu.org/ ) so the changes from
that particular branch can be merged back into master.

It really depends; Node.js projects often (recursively) depend on a lot
of tooling. You can try with the npm-binary importer first, but see the
note at
https://guix.gnu.org/manual/1.5.0/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-import.html#index-npm

"Note: Generated package expressions skip the build step of the
node-build-system. As such, generated package expressions often refer to
transpiled or generated files, instead of being built from source."

Kind regards,
Jelle
