Yeoman 1.0 Released

Yeoman is fantastic...I used it several months ago when deciding (foolishly, in retrospect) to learn both CoffeeScript and AngularJS at the same time while making an app. I had never put the effort into setting up grunt tasks manually...so working with automated building and testing were things I never had while developing with JS (which you can take to mean that my past work with JS has been mostly trivial).

Besides just being a great package overall, Yeoman really helped me appreciate how what seem like trivial niceties -- the speed of auto-build vs. stopping and restarting the local server and hitting Refresh -- can really make the difference between gradually losing interest because of the accumulation of small inconveniences and actually enjoying the development process enough to finish a project.

Is there a difference between 1.0 and 1.0.0-rc.1.1?

Are you sure?

    $ node -v
    v0.10.17
    
    $ yo -v
    1.0.0
    
    # this works:
    $ yo webapp
    ...
    
    # this doesn't:
    $ yo
    ...
    fs.js:427
      return binding.open(pathModule._makeLong(path), stringToFlags(flags), mode);
                    ^

Nice. I see they reverted the ng-boilerplate-based generators for AngularJS though. Hopefully that gets put in again soon.

I wiped out all npm modules and reinstalled node. Still getting error. I installed yeoman using:

    sudo npm install -g yo generator-webapp grunt-contrib-compass
