Me looking for the right NPM package
(lemmy.ml)
Meme aside, this is a rather sad image
I can't stand working with any JS/TS projects. I've spent days trying to update very simple SPA sites without any success.
Angular provides a utility to update its packages. If you naively update every single one manually, you’ll get errors because the library will be incompatible with itself. Maybe other flavors of SPA have update scripts, too?
ng update @angular/core@<the next major version> @angular/cli@<the next major version> Don’t skip versions!
I've mostly been working with VueJS 2 projects with the goal to upgrade to 3.
I do not understand the meme. NPM is garbage? I have NPMplus installed and so far I am happy with it.
For each problem you might want a package for, there are at least 3 packages, sometimes lots more. You need to sift through them in order to get the one that works and is maintained.
