Can you suggest how the build processes would skew it? For all 3 projects I believe the recommended build method involves a cli tool that installs each package once.

Totally agree actually, I love all Rich's talks and agree with almost every word of Simple Made Easy but I don't necessarily agree with the conclusion he takes it to (Clojure). I've heard it suggested somewhere that possibly

To all intents and purposes, when people say Sass, they mean Scss.

I don't mean to be an arse, but if you agree with my point, then maybe you can see why I disagree that your "that and" is a valid strike against React/in favour of Vue.

20 minutes vs an afternoon is probably not a great gauge for making technology choices. I highly recommend watching Rich Hickey's "Simple Made Easy" [1] talk which covers how the right ("simple") choice may not be t

I would argue 'integrates so easily into the imperative JS ecosystem' is not a differentiating factor over all the other JS frameworks, so its declarative programming style is far more likely to be the reason it is popular (and in

> pytest fixtures don't have that issue, as they're only run when you include the fixture for DI I don't see how that prevents any of the basic problems raised in the article.

Hmm I'm in the camp that believes setUp/tearDown and fixtures are not only equivalent, but both antipatterns. This article explains it better than I can [1] [1] https://robots.thoughtbot.com/lets-not

> extremely minimal and easy-to-use library. 'Extremely minimal' is hyperbole and 'easy-to-use' is subjective. I disagree with this as an absolute statement. I think there's a trade off, and it potentially harms

Not sure why you were downvoted, I agree. Redux brings a high 'concept count', for such a small amount of code. To talk the language of redux you have to understand: dispatch, actions, actions-types, actionCreators, reducers, mapS

Your comment is based on a pretty naive assumption that someone's making an either/or decision between pretty and functional. What team have you worked on where that is literally ever the case?

Several CSS-in-JS libs support all of CSS, and allow you to write actual CSS and not camelCase styles. styled-components [1] is prob the most popular example. Your complaint they are evaluating JS just to set styles is valid, tho some libs,

I don't think anyone's really claiming that Vue is a 'next big thing' to switch to from React. Vue/React/Angular are all competitors of the same generation.

Analytics is loaded asynchronously so it doesn't block rendering or interactivity. Yeah it'd be nice if they used server-side analytics instead, but cost/benefit.

Being able to do so is certainly a cool feature. But I've built a lot of apps prior to Redux and never felt like state replays were a must for debugging. There are various ways to debug state in a React app that uses setState. React de

RE the 2nd issue: Are you sure you even need `private: true`? Scoped modules are private by default right? I thought `private: true` was supposed to prevent publishing to npm altogether. It's odd they haven't at least triaged the
