This is what I should've done when I first had these problems. Trust as few external tools as possible; make it all my problem. That way, when something goes wrong, I know who to blame, and I know that it's fixable.

I don't do this kind of wheel-reinvention in other languages. In Ruby and Python I never used my own test runner, there was no build step to worry about, etc. But in JS, everything is so complicated! The lower-level pieces tend to be more tractable at least (e.g. chokidar).
