Good to know. Maybe if I got back to it the core is more functional now.

My impression is that it's soo easy to publish to NPM and the ecosystem is newbie friendly - this is good but it also creates a lot of noise and popularity/usage is not a valid indicator of reliability/quality (compared to other platforms). And because the core was so barebones you need to use third party solutions a lot more often so it compounds the issues.
