I code straight ES6 with no extra libraries and no compilation step, loaded straight into a modern browser. I don't have to care about older ones. Nobody's paying for this, and therefore nobody's paying me enough to deal with the tooling people complain about. The web is a pretty nice platform now, when you can approach it this way.

- BallCramp 10y agoYeah, I just do everything in ES5. Although grunt-concat is beautiful... I no longer have to work with 1,000+ lines of JS in one file (or deal with the overhead of importing a laundry list of .js files). I just have it 'watch' a folder for file changes, and it re-generates the concatenated file automatically... so I can pretty much go hog-wild with chopping up my JS into files. I was very resistant to NPM/grunt/etc., but it's such a quality-of-life improvement, I can't go back.
