Easy to succeed when you transitively infect the entire codebase due to conformance and the way build dependencies are set up.

What framework would you have preferred be endemic instead of Boq?

pod? boq acts as if it gives you modularity but try attaching C++ code to Java

What are boq and pod..? (curious non-Googler here, Google search didn't help).

Some info here: https://www.teamblind.com/post/Googles-Boq-Wiz-Soy-framework...

Both are infrastructure frameworks used to run servers

Boq sells itself the wrong way. The real point of Boq is to just run your stuff, and as a consequence you have to use its annoying code framework for reasons I'll never understand.

Pod seems fine on paper, but it's awful. Every little thing you want to do is a huge codelab, and it's less supported. So people default to Boq instead.

I see what you did there ;)

fuckin' pod people
