The advantage is precisely the thing that you excluded, the focus on one technology.

It is certainly common knowledge in some groups, but not in others. There are plenty of people who are primarily designers who know just a little JS, as well as developers in other languages who have learned just enough JS to get by.

Thanks for pointing out the _.defaults method. If I have time, I'll update the article to include that point.

That wouldn't surprise me at all. The visual design of a website can engage a user or drive a user away. The current python.org just presents the user with an unfriendly wall of text which make it difficult to get one's bearings. This is es

I typically read 2-3 programming books per month on my Kindle. Some of them are traditionally published. Others are not.

Does anyone happen to know if there is an open-source equivalent to this type of service? Obviously, saving the errors isn't that difficult, but reporting it back in a decently browseable interface requires a bit more effort. :-) If nobody

Redux is still on ongoing effort, but Redux is about more than just source maps. It is also about redesigning the compiler to be more flexible and extensible. If you're interested, I suggest subscribing to the Github notifications. They're
