As someone whose been in this space for a while, there are always new frameworks, new ways of doing things, new libraries and tools, most of it is just noise. Sometimes a new tool comes out (like Vite) that is a seismic shift, but for the most part that new framework or state management library really isn't all that much better than what we currently have.
My best suggestion to those developing JS apps is to not get carried away with the noise, pick a solid framework (React, Vue, Svelte, etc), pick some solid libraries, stay away from the experimental stuff, and just run with the tools you've got. There will always be a new tool around the corner that claims to be better than the existing tool, forget about it and stick with what you got, then revisit that tool if you hear alot of noise around it.
- tmountain 4y agoWhat’s special about Vite?
- quechimba 4y agoI used Webpack before Vite and always ended up with super complicated scripts for generating configurations. With Vite everything just basically works out of the box with no or very little configuration. And it's pretty fast. And it works with Rollup plugins, which are easy to write.
