Following #846: the site's homepage and other docs around builders and package managers were last redone back when the web ecosystem was very different. In particular, the following were still in common popular use:
- Build systems: Grunt and Gulp
- Package managers: Bower was still
Those are no longer the case. Most users don't want to know about them anymore.
Proposal: let's remove them from the primary docs, and instead mention their equivalents:
- Build systems: I don't know what to replace them with... Just, nothing? npm scripts?
- Package managers: npm, pnpm, and yarn
I think it would make sense to leave "older" docs around in some capacity. Some older projects still use those things. Gulp in particular I think is still supported and has some users who appreciate its streaming capacities.
