Careful checking in you build folder. If there are any native modules, and you are not on the same architecture, everything will explode.

This can be avoided by adding "npm rebuild" to your deployment.

This was held at the ccrma stage! So many great talks and concerts have been held there. I have used that room to stream phish shows and watch cabin in the woods in 5.1 :D

If you are in the bay area you should definitely go check out one of the events, they are all free and open to the public.

Re:Npm Private Modules on Tuesday April 14, 2015 @12:13PM (#9375291)
You can easily refer to a version by specifying it via hash

some-user/some-module#1.0.0

Now this is not very robust, as it does not manually incriment semver. That being said a module it not a git repo. There are pre-publish hooks that can be used to execute scripts before publishing. Further, tracking off of git introduces an entirely new set of problems from tracking tar balls. I can see why the team would not be particularly interested in investing time in it.

I've been stuck in file watching hell before... CHOKIDAR!!!!!

I actually had a really interesting conversation with Bert Belder about some of the lower level problem with file watching. It came up that perhaps there could be a working group around fixing this issue.

Fancy seeing you in a webpack thread :P
Keep your eyes peeled for the stuff we are going to announce next Wednesday :D
Hey t-plane. Famo.us offers a bit more than just matrix 3d transforms, in fact one of the best ways to think about how famo.us handles dom is more of a transport layer. There is no reason that famo.us could not use the same entity pattern and tree to render to webgl, we just have not been focusing on it (yet).

Disclaimer I work at Famo.us

Good thing you stopped... as that is entirely inaccurate :D

fwiw I am a famo.us employee

Re:JavaScript Modules on Wednesday July 02, 2014 @01:11AM (#7975328)
I think this is due to the fact that not every has ability / desire to live in the console. Having a development process that can work without a compile step is important.
