While technically feasible that is a low quality solution for the sake of keeping the solution space in JavaScript. JavaScript-based feature detection is one thing but conditionally loading the entire application is another. It is wholly

This sounds great but it is a dramatic misunderstanding of the real problem. Sure, you can personally decide you don't like a particular fork. However, the value of your position is not determined by you, it is determined by the comm

What you are describing is serving up different assets based on user agent detection. The "tool" in this case would be the application responsible for serving it, most likely either your custom server-side web app code, or your w

The Elm community is very strict about semver. Given this context, in Evan's defense, the 0.17 version is not a mistake as the API is still in flux.

As far as I am aware, on Windows, for C/C++ modules that need compiled, there are no options other than Visual Studio. I have to qualify this by saying that I have had an MSDN license for a decade and haven't been forced to find

Visual Studio is an extra source of issue since it packages its own version of nodejs and with it npm. You can configure Visual Studio to use your global nodejs, however. I have mine setup this way, and Visual Studio uses my global nodejs

I've worked with nodejs on Windows daily for years now and have very few issues. Almost all of those issues can be related to: - Bad npm scripts in `package.json`; usually maintainers with a severe OS X slant who don't consider t

Standardized modules like this are exactly what the node.js-stack bot herding community has needed! On the plus side: if you saw this dependency in a module you were looking at you would know to think twice.

If I may make a recommendation: check out ClojureScript with reagent and re-frame when you feel you've achieved what you set out to in Elm. While Elm nailed the essence of FRP, ClojureScript really nails the experience I was looking

Thank you, I will check this out! I hadn't considered a NativeScript route.

That Relay/GraphQL will "win" is very uncertain at this point. The solution is very interesting but only time and real world usage of it will tell in the long run. But you might be interested in this thread where the creato

Angular 2 is as good of a bet as any except for maybe React. Angular has enough name recognition in the enterprise space that it almost certainly won't be going anywhere anytime soon. That said, Angular 2 has no answer today for React

Elm has a lot of beauty to it. I would definitely promote anyone interested in learning FRP in web development to look here first. They really nailed the essence of the architecture, and getting some experience with ML-family languages is

I don't feel like the barrier to entry in ClojureScript is that deep. I think you will find it is awfully easy to pick up if you fall into one of the following categories: - You have experience with Lisp dialects (even better, Clojure

I was enjoying lurking, reading some of the freak out around what amounts to spending a day or a week learning a new framework. Whether you believe that this JS theatre is good or bad, learning new concepts and solutions is never a waste o

ClojureScript has a great story for hot reload with React Native via Leiningen + Figwheel[1] or Boot[2]. [1]: https://github.com/decker405/figwheel-react-native [2]: https://github.com/mjmeintjes/b
