Node.js Foundation User Feedback Meeting 2018-06-08: Tooling Feedback Session #68
Closed
Description
Time
Friday, June 8th 2018, 16:00 UTC (4:00 PM), or in your local time
Agenda
We will gather user feedback from Tooling group. For this session, I've selected a few "hot-button" issues from #59 which we will discuss:
- Cross-platform problems (
fs
,child_process
) fs
is missing some key operations (rimraf
,mkdirp
,fs-extra
, etc.)- Node.js startup time
Otherwise, anything goes along these topics:
- What's great about writing CLI tools in Node.js?
- What could be better about writing CLI tools in Node.js?
- What upcoming features will have an impact on your tooling work?
We'll try to give everyone a chance to be heard, but time is limited! Discussion points may also be added to #59, if you can't make the meeting.
Invited
- Anyone working in Node.js CLI tooling who wants to provide feedback
- Anyone who attended the last Tooling session
- User feedback team members (@nodejs/user-feedback)

Definitions
For our purposes, Tooling can be considered "command-line programs written in Node.js". Examples include tools which:
- build websites (e.g. Webpack, browserify)
- compile to/from JS (e.g. Babel, TypeScript)
- run test or static code checks (e.g. Mocha, ESLint)
- scaffold stuff (e.g. EmberCLI, create-react-app, Yeoman)
- run tasks (e.g. Grunt, Gulp)
- manage packages (e.g. npm, yarn)
and include:
- plugin ecosystem around any of the above
- libraries often consumed by CLI programs (e.g.
chalk
,yargs
)
