Agree totally on the struggle being worth it. I'm not really complaining (at this moment, anyway, hah. It is amazing how fragile it makes everything seem. I think a lot of those tools are safe, but yeah seemingly at any moment something could be abandoned or there could be some other drastic change in the chain. Example: I can't even remember the specifies of this, but somewhere along the line I was having a hard time working with some npm module and while searching for answers I discovered multiple sources saying the module was "blacklisted". This eventually led me to an easy working replacement, but I still have no idea what the "blacklisting" means - it was still available on npmjs.com. Also, building my Gulpfile.js was very interesting (and time consuming!). Seemingly so many different ways to approach it and I'm honestly not even quite clear on how I got it to work right so hopefully that doesn't break on me. The only part of all this I expect to act on at my actual work, for now, is the IDE. I think I could really benefit from getting myself up and running on PHPStorm instead of Notepad++/FileZilla.
