softwareI've recently been replacing more and more of the standard UNIX commands that ship with most distros (and macOS) with more modern alternatives. I'm going to show what I mean by "replacing" and how I do it.
I often hear two vastly different opinions on macOS that are opposites on the same spectrum - the OS is either great because "it just works", or terrible because it is "very limited and can't be customized". I think both are wrong.
Our job as front-end engineers is to find the balance between relying on as few dependencies as possible while having enough tools to be productive. This is one opinionated take on a sensible front-end stack for production applications in 2023.
