It would be a really nice thing if the JS community had one trivial test bed application with a README which listed exactly what one would need to do to boot it on localhost and an undone trivial feature to implement.https://twitter.com/Shpigford/status/1066523775775186944 …

toolchain churn? What toolchain churn are you seeing? Literally everything in the "cool kids stack" that I know of has been around for 3+ years and widely used since then too... Are we expecting tools to be 20+ years old before people stop complaining about them being to "new"?

People make it overly complicated. Which is good for (my) business. It’s not a “cool kid stack”, but more of an infinite sea of personal preferences being met. It’s simpler than ever if you skip to the right bits and stop the self-flagellation of ecosystem exploration.

I think you (Joel) mentioned you already have a URL for this type of project, but I think a great egghead feature would be: “This is the path of least resistance to shipping your first thing in JavaScript.” Could be evergreen, but likely wouldn’t need to be updated very often.

One thing I can say about text munging tools and the Unix shell, things really haven't changed that much in 30 years (except that disk and memory and CPU are impossibly big and fast, and occasionally you need to parse JSON or YAML).

Applies to many programming languages and databases/infrastructures too. Time to "hello world" can be surprisingly long.

It's a very good reason to avoid the Cool Kid Stack. Chasing the latest tooling stack in JS-land is mostly a practice of the (extremely vocal) hype train; experienced developers don't generally do that.

Would love to hear your thoughts on how/why development has trended in this direction relative to e.g. Rails convention over config mentality. Rails hooked me on development and soured me on Cool Kid Stack which stands in stark contrast.
