All of it.
Case in point: why does linting for a hello world Vue project using typescript require no fewer than 6 linting modules, each of which introduces poorly documented backwards-incompatible changes roughly annually? And why do half of them have multiple alternatives that we have to somehow evaluate and choose among?
And that’s just one tiny corner of the ecosystem.
I want to spend my time building, not evaluating and debugging linting modules and other developer tooling.
