It's not feasible to believe we can just disable post-install scripts since so many older packages rely on these. Having them contained to avoid dubious scripts seems like the next best solution.
Redux was kinda of a poor man's elm but it got the right principles. However the JS community hates boilerplate code so, new, more complicated abstractions appeared. Also, it was too easy, with redux, to shoot yourself in the foot.
Since then, with hooks, things are just getting harder and more complicated in my opinion.
However, it looks really promising and more feature rich than the current version of Monica.
I do have a question thought. Will this version support WebDav/Cal? Syncing contacts to my mobile phone is the main reason why I use monica on a daily base.
The reason why it fell mostly in disuse nowadays is because jshint appeared, which allowed a lot more customization of the available rules being applied.
Later eslint popped up with it's plugin engine allowing anyone to have their own custom set of rules.
As far as I know, no one cared about jshint's license because there was no code being shipped, and eventually code would be minified anyway leaving no traces of jshint.
Now... We can talk about the morality of ignoring a license, but ultimately jshint's license was simply ignored by almost everyone
Coverage can be increased without increasing the test suite by reducing the code base size (within pratical limits obviously)
Personally, I only find coverage as a good indicator of which code still needs to be tested, like forgetting some edge cases or conditional branches.
I'm sure someone with more knowledge in security would better chime in.
