The sweet success of finally getting something to work after 2 days and getting closing 20 tabs on my browser. The JavaScript ecosystem can be such a dumpster fire sometimes.

The last two days I've been trying to get vite to work with a lerna repo. You can tell you are stuck when you have about 20 tabs open in your browser and when you do a new Google search all the links to results have already been visited.

Even though I have been using JavaScript for 15 years I might as well keep the MDN docs for JavaScript arrays always open. Today I had to look up the format for Array.prototype.reduce().
