That’s the thought I always had: When I develop in Node, I stand on the shoulders of ten thousand microbes.
“Why not write Assembly then?”
Oh, here comes the genius motherfucker with the big-brain counterargument: “Well, if HTML’s so great, why not just write everything in Assembly, huh?”. Wow, look at you, you clever little prick. Did you come up with that all by yourself? Writing web pages in Assembly is like using a fucking scalpel to slice your overcooked steak: sure, it’ll get the job done, but you’re gonna look like a complete asshole while you’re at it. HTML just works, you absolute tool. It’s been the backbone of the web since Al Gore flipped the switch, and it’ll still be here long after your trendy framework is rotting in a GitHub graveyard. So take your smartass logic and shove it. HTML’s king, and you’re just a peasant with a keyboard.
🤣
If you don’t believe HTML is enough, check any socialist/communist web page.
Thank the programming gods for tree shaking.
Shake dat thicc tree for me, bb.
We need to bring back system development! Not everything needs to be an electron app!
Node =/= JavaScript
me with rust. I like rust, but this is like I feel it XD
This can be fixed by switching from npm to pnpm or bun. They use hard links and a package cache.
This does not fix anything. Your final packaged code is the same.
Depends firstly what you are building. For a Node backend, it of course matters a lot. For a JS frontend you always only ship a fraction of the dependency code, so the meme doesn’t really apply. Modern JS frameworks are alright as long as you know what you are doing 🙂

Have fun with a11y!
Me working on basic js:
Well JS, you are an odd fellow, but you run in a browser.
HELP! HEEELP!
This is why you add
node_modulesto your.gitignoreand I thought my little python exe weighting 33MB was a bit much
I’m here still using jQuery and php+sockets for nearly all my needs. Only once in my life I actually needed node
