Webpack and Gulp were never meant to be simpler alternatives. Gulp used streams instead of serially processing files like Grunt, which made it faster, but obviously streams working in parallel are more complex than just processing the files

Their actual efficacy is questionable at best though. After about 10 minutes of breathing, water vapor from your own breathing would have rendered it more or less permeable to anything infectious. Sneezing into a handkerchief would probably

Historically, equatorial countries in Africa, South and South East Asia were colonies. I think we can also assume each country weights equally on the regression line, even though they vary greatly in population - this favors latitudes with

It seems Firefox supports a non-standard fourth parameter, so that won't work either. addEventListener is possibly the worst organically grown API I've seen in a long time. If anything, its sordid history should be a lesson to the

In older browsers, useCapture is NOT an optional parameter, and in most cases you do NOT want to use event capture instead of event bubbling. There's no trivial way to support addEventListener(event, handler, { passive: true }) on both

I've had the pleasure of working with Swift for a few months last summer to develop some iOS prototypes. To borrow something Douglas Crockford said about JavaScript and the DOM in 2006[1], Swift is a pretty good language saddled with a

Counterpoint: React is no less opinionated, fast, or has less of a DSL than Vue. Opinionated: React is a library written for a language that is not JavaScript (the first prototype was written in OCaml). It demands immutability, which JS has

Let me add a few cons then - Saying the error messages are "not intuitive" is a bit of an understatement. Most memorably, this was an actual message I was presented with after upgrading to Flow v0.53 - https://imgur.com

Wow, Safari Mobile only gained support in iOS 10. That's September 2016, and leaves out iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and iPad 3, devices from 2011 and 2012.

Ironically we have the exact same problem, except worse with Safari, since it has (relatively) poor support for some cutting edge APIs, and unlike Edge/IE we can't even legally test it in a VM because Apple doesn't even allow

It's a matter of personal opinion, but I guess I'm more used to server-side templating languages, which Vue's looks much more similar to. I have the same problem as you for JSX - I keep trying to read it as HTML, except it&#x

JSX is closer to JS than HTML, which means it annoying to write in some cases. Quick, what does this render as? <a href="...">Link 1</a> | <a href="...">Link 2</a> | <a href=
