Having opinions != removing choices
One can have an opinionated, canonical build system and still allow unorthodox things.
- drharby 8y agoBut having an 'unorthodox' (read: not aligned with the opinion) design pattern then comes at a cost. I favor agnostic build systems specifically to permit the fair democratization of design patterns and to embrace a more earnest diversity of thought.
- bluGill 8y agoThe strong the opinion the harder the unorthodox things are. The weaker the opinion the harder it is for newbies to get going. There is a trade off here.
- wwweston 8y agoSeems to me that deep configuration capabilities combined with opinionated defaults address the tradeoff.
