I'm trying to phase Node.js out of my life and I think #Python is my ticket, (even though I don't know the lang yet).
* Static site gen: Eleventy -> Pelican
* HTML templating: Nunjucks / Handlebars / Pug -> Jinja
* Task running: Gulp / Grunt / npm -> Invoke
* Combining & minifying CSS & JS: various npm modules > Django compressor
* Package mgmt: npm > pip
* Applications: Electron -> absolutely anything
I think I actually have a check for every item on the list of currently Node driven tasks.
Static: Nikola
Task running: systemd
Actually I'm running all apps (Node, Django) from systemd - for example this is how I run Matrix Synapse app (Python).
@kravietz Oh cool, thanks for the example! I'll get some reading in on essentials of systemd so I know where I can put it to use.
