It's really not that complicated. You described pretty much all the trouble in less than a paragraph. It sounded like 10 minutes of fiddling around.
For creating a cross platform library that just works it's pretty painless. Have you tried java/maven? Or webpack? Or god forbid cross platform C++?
Your problem seems to be focused on the fact that command line interfaces are not discoverable. This is true of all command line interfaces. Linux/Unix has many utilities that are quite foreign at first. But once you learn the interface (and in this case it is quite simple) you can accomplish things with quite a bit of efficiency.
- dvcc 10y agoI don't know, I don't think my main problem was with the CLI rather how hard it was to just get something small going. In contrast, node takes all of 5 seconds to setup a small library, install dependencies, clearly list required engine, etc. Is it perfect, no way; however, it isn't very complicated either. I don't think I'm totally alone with that sentiment either. .NET Core was a project that had pretty high expectations from the beginning, a cross-platform, sane and simpler .NET development platform (C#/F# too!).
