Its disheartening to see so many duplicate efforts to solve the same problems everyone faces. Instead of supporting an existing open-source project that attempts to solve the problem in pretty much the same way (jspm), a conglomerate once again builds their own from scratch. I do not think the underlying motivations for doing so are questioned enough. Sure there is control, but it is of course anyway-you-slice-it an aggrandizement of their brand. We should be ashamed as a community to support the idea of yet ANOTHER client side dependency management system. How oh how did we ever solve this problem before Facebook came along and made Yarn in late 2016?
