But npm isn’t faster than bower |

Jun 27th 2017, 10:38 |

Because it’s faster |

It works, so why should I chnage it? |

I used bower |

It did always seems a bit odd to use a package manager to install a package manager. |

NPM all the things |

To me Bower is dead :P |

I do not see any reason to use bower anymore :thinking_face: anyone can fill me in? |

im still using bootstrap 3 (for now) |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:25 |
birdy247 |
bootstrap 4 is sass |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:23 |
maymeow |
yes |

I think Twitter Bootstrap is built using Less though |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:23 |
neon1024 |
I found Less first, as I read about Compass, which was the front-end framework built on Less |

They’re like flavours of ice cream. They’re all a bit different, but they’re all ice cream at the end of the day :P |

The Sass gem can convert Less into Sass if I recall |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:21 |
neon1024 |
As you have sass vs scss too |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:21 |
neon1024 |
Same difference *really* |

Sass vs Less? I have tried only Less mainly because i have installed nodeJS on my pc... |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:19 |

We went with the Sass gem mostly because we all use Mac OS which comes with Ruby, so it’s easier for the design team :slightly_smiling_face: |
| # |

Saves you having to have both NodeJS and Ruby in your development environment |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:19 |
neon1024 |
So you might want to find a NodeJS package to build your Sass |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:18 |
neon1024 |
If you’re going to use Bower, then you’ll need NPM, which means you need NodeJS |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:18 |
neon1024 |
At least, that’s my very limited understanding of it’s purpose |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:18 |
neon1024 |
Just like how you use Composer |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:18 |
neon1024 |
Perhaps some google maps thing, some charts js perhaps, maybe reactjs |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:17 |
neon1024 |
So you might include twitter bootstrap and jquery in your bower.json |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:17 |
neon1024 |
Well Bower is just a package manager |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:17 |
birdy247 |
and the JS is handled via bower |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:17 |
neon1024 |
We also like --style=compressed for some nice compressed css :slightly_smiling_face: |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:16 |
neon1024 |
Yep |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:16 |
birdy247 |
then push to production |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:16 |
birdy247 |
then bui;d |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:16 |
birdy247 |
so make a change to the .sass file |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:16 |
neon1024 |
Badsauce. |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:16 |
neon1024 |
The main point is, don’t compile it on production, especially on request |
| # |
Jun 27th 2017, 10:15 |
neon1024 |
I’m sure it can be compiled using all sorts of tooling though |
