not to make light of the crappy parts about the JS ecosystem, but I have seen the nightmares of python, Java, Go, C and C++ tooling Give me JS tooling madness any day before C++ linking issues, JNI crap or fucking pip (python package manager), go.mod direct-to-git deps madness, Android SDK madness and random XML files, fucking Cocoapods Library version compatibility with runtime/compiler? What a joke, there is not a single language environment I have used that doesn't have this problem Face it, IT ALL SUCKS. It is made by humans, only way to avoid this problem is top-down industry enforced language and practices and 5-year release cycles for new language features. Nobody wants that On a small note about JS code bundling for browsers: it is a REALLY hard problem. If browsers could run, say, python, you would still have bundlers and bundler configuration galore. It is akin to video game engines building process where you need to merge all sorts of assets together, the main difference is that there is no IDE to press play button to do it for you (unity, unreal)
