Kudos to John-David Dalton for making such an awesome lib and being such a positive force behind it for so long! I've reached out to him multiple times on Twitter and he's always been quick to help! He should definitely write a post on how he stays productive and motivated to work day-in and day-out on one project. Really inspiring!

Could not agree more. I have opened multiple issues on GitHub and he is always quick to reply. It takes a lot of diligence to maintain an almost always empty issues list on GitHub.

For Brunch, looks like [initial, probably v buggy] NPM stuff went into master about 10 days ago.

I've been using npm support in Brunch and so far so good.

Ah, that's good to know; I'd been sticking to Bower for Phoenix' front end stuff, might start looking at migrating them to NPM if Brunch support is stable now.

Thanks to him indeed. Thanks for his work (and research) on sandboxed natives, FuseJS, NWMatcher, LoDash and so many more awesome projects. He never stopped pushing that envelope and we're reaping the benefits now.

Feels good to see a JS lib last that long and still be actively maintained, deprecating obsolete features and adapting to the new ways we use our browsers without breaking BC (or else explaining how to migrate).

Coming from Symfony (PHP), this just feels right: keep moving but make it easy to follow along.

Given that there were 14825158 downloads of lodash from npm last month, that implies that there were over 3M downloads from bower. That's a lot of people to throw under the bus.

According to bower stats over the last 7 days lodash was installed 23 times compared to 4 million npm downloads & 181 new npm packages depending on it. http://bower.io/stats/ http://npm-stat.com/charts.html?package=lodash https://gist.github.com/anvaka/8e8fa57c7ee1350e3491/revision...

Sounds broken. My team alone would have installed it more times that that.

Indeed, John-David Dalton, together with Dan Abramov and others have been great in the JS community. Kudos!
