Been there, done that. What I'd love to understand now is how to build front-end packages with node, typescript, vue, react Etc.
I find it ironic that the JavaScript ecosystem, based on an interpreted language, now requires more time and finesse to build from source than most kernel modules.

- danbmil99 5y agoIf it were only that easy. Large mature projects often have much more complicated build steps than just invoking npm, especially if you want to build incrementally so you can edit/run/debug faster than the 15+ minutes it takes to do a full build. Dev modes, logging, minimization etc. are now easily as complex as 90's era C/C++ builds.
