Transcript
JAMISON:  You can curse but we will just edit it out and replace it with fart noises.
TOM:  I’ll be providing plenty of my own.
[Laughter]
JAMISON:  Okay, good.

CHUCK:  Hey everybody and welcome to Episode 47 of the JavaScript Jabber show. This week on our panel, we have AJ O’Neal.
AJ:  Yo! Yo! Yo! Coming at you not even live!
CHUCK:  [Laughs] Alright, Jamison Dance.
JAMISON:  Hi guys, it’s tough to follow that.
CHUCK:  Merrick Christensen.
MERRICK:  Hey.
CHUCK:  Joe Eames.
JOE:  Howdy!
CHUCK:  Tim Caswell.
TIM:  Hello.
CHUCK:  I’m Charles Max Wood from DevChat.tv. And this week, we have two guests. The first one is Tom Dale.
TOM:  Hey, thanks for having me.
CHUCK:  The other is James Halliday.
JAMES:  Yep. Hello.
CHUCK:  Welcome to the show, guys. We were having a conversation a while back, I don’t remember if it was during another episode or after another episode. But we were having a discussion over code complexity and having like small simple libraries or small simple sets of functionality versus large monolithic sets of functionality, and how to approach those and when they’re appropriate. So, we brought you guys on to help us explore this because you're experts, right?
TOM:  I don’t think that’s a fair analysis of the situation, but we can certainly fumble our way through something.
[Laughter]
CHUCK:  Alright. So, why don’t you guys, real quick, just kind of introduce yourselves? Give us a little background on what your experience is so that we know which questions to ask you guys.
James, why don’t you start? I know you’ve been on the show before.
JAMES:  Hello. I suppose I wrote Browserify which is relevant here. It’s a common JS style, bundler packager thing that just uses NPM. And I have a bunch of other libraries. And I really like doing data development as just a bunch of little modules put together. They are all published completely independently on NPM. I think I’m up to like 230-ish some odd modules on NPM now. So, I’ve been doing that and I really like that style.
Special Guests: James Halliday and Tom Dale.
