The API hasn't been completely rewritten like the front-end. It was already in PHP and so it stayed in PHP.

The WWW API is written in PHP which interacts with a lot of Go codebases elsewhere in CF. We're going to be publishing more engineering-related blog posts about the new dashboard in the coming days/weeks.

Hi, I'm one of the Babel contributors. I can sympathize the initial fear of transpiling. However, it really is much better than you think. Source maps have made big strides in the past year and Babel has excellent support for them. Bes

I would warn against using `let` in Firefox today, their implementation has a lot of bugs[1][2] at this point. [1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=950547 [2] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bu

Babel contributor here. It's great to hear how many people are already deploying projects using Babel, and even better to see how fast ES6 is getting adopted. Many people are still stuck in an ES3 world... ( shakes head ) If anyone has

A couple things: - The actual difference (minified and gzipped) is 17.6 KB vs. 5.7KB. - Lodash is written modularly so you can import only the methods you actually need. - In order to "lose some weight" (as Jeremy Ashkenas called

Wow thanks! I just spent the last few weeks rebuilding the entire website, and worked pretty hard on that page in particular. I'm really glad to hear you like it. Let me know if there's anything that can been improved with the sit

Then why not use something like https://6to5.org/ ? Most syntax features can be transpiled without a runtime (generators being an exception) and everything else can simply use polyfills.

I would disagree that this is an issue of separation of concerns, but instead it is a self-imposed separation for developer sanity. They are two different technologies, so one has to do a mental context-switch every time they go from writin

Backbone.Radio is awesome (Bias Disclaimer: I helped write it with James Smith). It's definitely going to replace Wreqr in Marionette 3.0, and we'll be integrating with it much more. There is also a lot of other cool things coming

Hi, Marionette core member here. I'd be interested in hearing about any trouble you've had while working with Marionette. Side note: We're really rapidly re-writing our documentation right now (yay alliteration) so people can
