- I use Browserify(1) because it allows me to use CommonJS(2) modules and bundle my JavaScript painlessly.
- Beyond the pretty standard debowerify(3) and hintify(4) transforms I use babelify(5) to help me sprinkle fancy ES6 features here and there.
- Node-based watchers and the npm client itself are all broken in many ways and very bad Unix citizens so I've stopped using npm for anything beyond actual package management and I will almost certainly replace the npm client with Yarn(6) very soon. The venerable make(7) or the much much younger but very dependable modd(8) are infinitely better than all that Node-based crap on _every_ front.
- I use tape(9) for tests (works like node-tap(10) with a little fewer dependencies) but I _love_ the look of ospec(11) even if it's not TAP(12)-compliant.
- Some JS libraries I've used recently: route-pars
Read the rest
er(13), pikaday(14), vidage(15), etc.
- I don't use any Sass/SCSS-specific tool or library.
- I use Vim(16) for editing text and either git itself (with with(17) when I remember I have it) or tig(18) for versioning source code.
