And I don't care about "cultures". They come and go, and change with time. What I care about are unchanging things - the programs.
Sane package managers allow you to make your code however you want to. OSS allows you to tweak the code in whatever way you need, arguing for CMake over npm is frankly baffling.
- palata 2y agoWell cargo works well, I can't deny it. I was really talking about culture, which is important to me. The fact that many devs assume that everybody using Linux is on Ubuntu is culture, right? In Rust, it is often assumed that Rust was installed with rustup. It's nice to say "you are not forced to use rustup", but if it doesn't work when you don't, then you are kind of forced :-).
