Same, but it's nice if those libraries have zero dependencies so when you include them in your project you know exactly what you're getting.
- wwweston 7y agoThis. It's not that I want to avoid any dependency -- I'm more than happy to use a well-crafted library or tool that provides an abstraction that neatly covers a problem domain. But at some point the depth and complexity of the dependency tree can make it difficult for a package manager to keep in a correct state, which speaks to the opacity anyone who attempts to manually map it is going to end up confronting.
