Advancing Node.js as a framework for writing great tools

• nodejs/tooling is a place to propose and discuss initiatives around improving the developer experience for those writing tools using Node.js.
• nodejs/tooling is a group of developers who want to help. The team can be mentioned using the username @nodejs/tooling.

• nodejs/tooling has nothing to do with internal tools or automation for the Node.js project. Maybe you were looking for nodejs/build or nodejs/automation?
• nodejs/tooling is not an official "working group"; it presently has no charter.
• There are no actual tools in nodejs/tooling.

It may be easiest to provide this non-exhaustive list of examples:

• Test runners & linters
• Build tools & bundlers
• Task runners
• Package managers
• System utilities
• Compilers, transpilers & language servers
• Modules, projects & libraries supporting these use cases

• Join the #node-tooling channel on the Dev Tools Community Slack (automatic signup)
• Provide user feedback--how do you use Node.js to write tools? What's good? What could be better?
• Create issues and participate in discussions
• Attend online meetings
• Document initiatives and send them as PRs
• Help us formalize stuff if it's too loosey-goosey, b/c I'm just making this up as I go rn

• Code of Conduct
• Initial request for this repo
• Previous discussion points
