What is the build tool used in the javascript world this week? Broccoli? Grunt? Gulp? Talp?
Just dealing with breaking changes in any one of those is a full time job!
- hungerstrike 9y agoPro-tip: you don’t have to switch tools the minute that something new comes out.
- btbuildem 9y agoHaha yes you do, because your manager does, every time
- gonvaled 9y agoYou do, since different communities use different build tools. And they even switch tools, for the new kid on the block.
- hungerstrike 9y agoBullshit. You're arguing as if every JS developer has to interact with every JS community. Stop presenting these ridiculous false dichotomies.
- dblotsky 9y agoYou often do though. For example if you want to do open source development on JS projects, this means that you might have to learn many different build systems.
- hungerstrike 9y agoYeah, where “often” is defined as “this one example that I just conjured up”.
- dblotsky 9y agoYep, you're right. It's anecdotal evidence, of which you have 2 data points on this thread. We're extrapolating here from what we've seen, for sure. If you have better data, please do share.
- hungerstrike 9y agoI know I'm right. Thanks.
- dblotsky 9y agoAw, I was hoping you'd actually follow up with some meaningful data. :(
- hungerstrike 9y agoSame
- dblotsky 9y agoOur anecdotal evidence trumps your no evidence. ;)
