Richie Khoo<p>Package Manager for Markdown</p><p>I&#39;m working on a project that is intended to encourage folk to make markdown text files which can be bundled together in different bundles of text files using a package manager. </p><p>Question for coders; Which package manager would you suggest I use?</p><p>Main criterias (in order) are:</p><p>1. Easy for someone with basic command line skills to edit the file and update version numbers and add additional packages.</p><p>2. All being equal, more commonly and easy to setup is preferred.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Markdown" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Markdown</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/CommonMark" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CommonMark</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/PackageManager" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PackageManager</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Programming</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Dev" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Dev</span></a> <br /><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/NPM" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NPM</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RubyGems" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RubyGems</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Cargo" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Cargo</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/PickingAMastodonInstance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PickingAMastodonInstance</span></a> <br /><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Ruby" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Ruby</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Python" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Python</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Rust" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Rust</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Javascript" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Javascript</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/NodeJs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NodeJs</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Lisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Lisp</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/CommonGuide" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CommonGuide</span></a></p>
Richie Khoo<p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ThoughtfulMastodonInvitations" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ThoughtfulMastodonInvitations</span></a></p><p>These days when I ask someone to join me on Mastodon. I like to pair that ask with a recommendation for a great server to join. Obviously they are very welcome to go down a rabbit hole themselves and pick out one themselves, but in my experience a thoughtful recommendation of a suitable server or two really helps them to actually step across and to feel supported in the process.</p><p>I see it as this &#39;first account&#39; divide, once in and playing around, people get much more confident either bedding in with where they started or making additional accounts on other servers, for themselves or their projects/orgs.</p><p>It&#39;s sort of like recommending a good place to go for dinner or a good wine or movie suggesstion.</p><p>Do you have certain mastodon servers you recommend to particular people, would love to hear your thoughts.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Instances" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Instances</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/PickingAMastodonInstance" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PickingAMastodonInstance</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/GettingStarted" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GettingStarted</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/MastodonTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>MastodonTips</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/FediverseGettingStarted" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FediverseGettingStarted</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/GrowingMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GrowingMastodon</span></a></p>
