JavaScript - Because you are worth it.
It has been busy two weeks again. Webpack 2 reached a final version (https://medium.com/webpack/webpack-2-2-the-final-release-76c3d43bf144) . This also gave me a good excuse to push a new version of my webpack book out there (http://survivejs.com/blog/survivejs-webpack-160/) . It’s getting closer and closer to paper and the end(?) is in sight.
