I've used both stacks for years. I have no complaints about Maven, to be honest, it just works and I don't really spend much time thinking about it as a result.

I've used both stacks for years. I have no complaints about Maven, to be honest, it just works and I don't really spend much time thinking about it as a result. On the other hand that's been less true for npm, hence why I've now switched over to yarn.
Maybe I'm missing something though - 100x is a bold assertion and I guess you must have some very strong reasons for preferring npm's features over Maven to warrant that - would you mind explaining a bit more?
- jbooth 9y agoI'd go as far as to say that if you've spent enough hours with your build system that 100X is a meaningful assertion, you're spending too many hours in your damn build system.
- Illniyar 9y agoMy experience has been reverse. Maven is also used as a build system, which makes it's configuration considerably more complex and error prone then npm.
