I'm working on a project with a friend.
He is by far a better programmer than I am, as I have been programming for a little over a year.
I noticed he often builds components, and functionality from scratch. I'd consider him almost a "hipster" in terms of building functionality from scratch.
Is there any downside to my approach of utilizing npm libraries, etc for use? Ie. Date Pickers, Map Components, etc?
One reason I might conjure up is that perhaps there's a performance hit. Will load time be affected significantly? I'm not building a large application, in fact I'd consider it small, BUT! I'm wondering if I'm "cheating", OR this will lead to bloat.
As a quick preview, my basic functionality would currently look to include:
- Emoji Picker
- Date Picker
- Google Maps API Maps Component & Places
- Form Validation Library
- Superagent
- Moment.js
Thanks!
