• TypeScript's Successor is Waiting, and You'll Never Want to Turn Back

  Under the hood, Rescript uses a build system called Ninja. Ninja is similar to Make, but cross-platform and more minimal/performant. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Using Make – writing less Makefile

  Ninja was super easy to pick up even after using make for some time (10+ years). GN is just a ninja generator that is optional. https://gn.googlesource.com/gn/+/main/docs/quick_start.md https://ninja-build.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: What outdated tech are you still using and are perfectly happy with?

  Really? I thought most new projects were switching to ninja[^1] and have never used it. [^1]: https://ninja-build.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• What was used to build C++ programs before Cmake?

  Ninja showed real promise for a while, but then CMake grew up and people stopped seeing a reason to leave it behind. Source: 10 months ago

• Building and Running Pidgin and Finch 3

  Authenticating with Kyma is a (in my opinion) unnecessary challenge as it leverages the OIDC-login plugin for kubectl. You find a description of the setup here. This works fine when on a Mac but can give you some headaches on a Windows and on Linux machine especially when combined with restrictive setups in corporate environments. For Windows I can only recommend installing krew via chocolatey and then install the... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Effective Neovim Setup. A Beginner’s Guide

  On a Windows machine, you can use Chocolatey by running the command. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

• Need Help with getting Haskell onto my Windows Laptop

  I've used WSL2 and GHC/Nix--worked without any issues. However, there is Chocolatey: https://chocolatey.org/. Source: 5 months ago

• Python Versions and Release Cycles

  For OSX there is homebrew or pyenv (pyenv is another solution on Linux). As pyenv compiles from source it will require setting up XCode (the Apple IDE) tools to support this which can be pretty bulky. Windows users have chocolatey but the issue there is it works off the binaries. That means it won't have the latest security release available since those are source only. Conda is also another solution which can be... - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
