Ask HN: Why is NPM and FE development in general so shit?

5 pointsby whitepaintalmost 2 years ago
I just don't understand why there are always gazillion problems when I need to run some framework like Laravel or something, and FE stuff just never can fucking work from the first time. `npm run build` just gives gazillion problems that needs to be solved ALL THE FUCKING TIME. Why the hell is it so shit? Why can't FE be simple as BE?!?!? Who created this nonsense?

GPT version:<p>I don&#x27;t understand why there are frequently numerous issues while working with frameworks like Laravel or other front-end technologies. Running `npm run build` consistently presents multiple problems that require constant troubleshooting. Why is it so challenging? Why can&#x27;t front-end development be as straightforward as back-end? Who is responsible for this?<p>But.. something is definitely lost \o&#x2F;

With the rage in the question this will never lead to a sensible discussion.
