Would choosing a tool that might create a barrier for developers to join us, eventually be a problem in the long run?
Most new developers I encounter have learned React at university, and a lot of external developers have a lot more experience with modern technologies than Koha developers, so I don't think that we need to worry about that too much. I've had co-workers refuse to work on Koha, because it's an intimidating mess of old Perl CGI code. Even if a developer were unfamiliar with the Javascript framework we use, it would probably be faster for them to learn it than for them to learn Koha's Perl code. -- My hope would also be that we would create re-usable components, so that there wouldn't be much work to do for adding a new DB table and its associated CRUD interface. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
