Excuse me, did you want to try out a few new things, refresh web-dev tools, have some fun or start coding immediately?

Because, it looks like: I am chief-cooker and i can't cook simple meal. There are so much vegetables, juices, it looks like a game.

> I want a bread for my meal.

Leavened, Rye, Flatbread?

Uhhh, ohhh, it's too haaard, i wanted to try new things, but I'm seeking for best, standard choice.

These two things don't have to be mutually exclusive. In any other area of programming that I've tried recently, they're not — except for JS-based web development.

Tell us, in what area you've refreshed your dev tools and started coding immediately.

I remember I was trying to replace maven with gradle in Java -- it was fail because I wasn't able to add new repository to gradle. I'm still not sure how to it.
