A while ago you could get away with doing front-end dev with nothing but a text editor and an FTP client, compared to those days I can see how things seem absurd now.
- mcintyre1994 8y agoI know what you’re saying, but you still can. React/Vue can be included as a script tag. You won’t get a transpiler or a bundler or a linter or types, but you didn’t before with just a text editor either. And honestly if you just want to sprinkle some JavaScript onto a website it is easier now, you probably don’t need jquery to do your Dom stuff and you probably don’t need to worry about browser support for what you’re doing either.
- commandlinefan 8y agoNot only can you still, but the documentation assumes that you are. If you want to use a more “advanced” tool, you’ll have to mentally map the command-line examples in the docs to whatever the tool does.
