Here is an idea: write the damn thing under a new name and abandon /offer a path to migrate.
- nine_k 3y agoThe old version is not going anywhere. I suppose the rewritten version will be a drop-in replacement with an identical / 100% compatible interface. (Else it's not a rewrite.)
- alexvitkov 3y agoLodash was 0 value to begin with, now it's going to the realm of negative value. Can't wait to debug compatibility issues of a convenience/utility library 5 layers deep into the dependency chain.
- adrianmsmith 3y ago> The old version is not going anywhere. The same can't be said about the tickets and PRs for the old version though!
- x86x87 3y agoJust guessing here: I don't think it's going to be 100%. Sometimes it's not 100% even between versions of the same lib (breaking changes, major versions). If it's good enough people will start using it and the old version will just fail into obsolescence.
- ricardobeat 3y agoLodash itself started as a 'better' version of underscore.js, and ended up bloated and over-engineering exactly as the prophecy says. If anything, this 3rd system will hit the right balance :)
- tacitusarc 3y agoLodash started because underscore violated semver by releasing breaking changes as a minor version update.
