It's not working out fine. You just haven't been around long enough to understand it.
JS code is the most disposable piece of any infrastructure. In all companies(mine included) that I know of, npm and the JS jenga tower of hell is the most brittle element that breaks every fucking day. It's the constant pain you can count on being around.
The stack and the dependencies are a moving target. Like.. every minute. If you had coded in any other language other then JS you would know that.
Come to me after 5 years and tell me if your "professional" JS code you're writing today is used by anyone and then we'll talk.
I'll be waiting.
- darawk 11y agoPerhaps you should be looking inwards, rather than blaming your tools, for the reason your npm 'jenga tower of hell' exists in the first place. I experience no such pain, and i've been doing this for many years. And i've coded plenty in other languages. None with anywhere near as good an experience as NPM if you know how to use it properly.
