SebastianVerified account @sebmckContinuing the trend of nice error messages. Validation of package.json including parsing of semver ranges/versions with frames pointing to the exact source location in JSON. A combination of a custom JSON parser, and then chaining it with a custom semver parser with an offset. pic.twitter.com/dQC3U5JEI9Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 3 likesShow this thread -

All of these tweets seem fairly vague alone, but in aggregate they tell a larger story. This will be open source. I don't know when. I am the only one working on it (hopefully not for long). Happy to answer any questions.

Are you planning to include any tool for API documentation? I've always thought it'd be cool if documentation were built into my package manager, e.g. `rome docs react` might let me browse the docs for a package right there in the terminal.

npm already has a solution for that, man pages. It's a specific field in package.json. It could be a lot easier to automatically build and consume them though. Using existing standards is preferred, I wouldn't want to bifurcate the ecosystem unless it was substantially worth it.

I don't understand. npm already has a solution for installing packages too, but you're building that into rome, right? How do you choose what to include and what to ignore?

Did he said he was building a package installer into this? I may have missed that - thought he just said “bundler.”

"dependency manager". Terminology is weird. It's one piece that hasn't been fleshed out much beyond just ideas. Never populate node_modules, the bundler would use zip loading (like Yarn).https://twitter.com/sebmck/status/1108407804635705344 …
