Philosophy
As quoted on @isaacs post "Unix Philosophy and Node.js", Doug McIlroy's 4-point formulation of the Unix Philosophy:
Â
-
Make each program do one thing well.
To do a new job, build afresh rather than complicate old programs by adding new features. -
Expect the output of every program to become the input to another, as yet unknown, program.
Donât clutter output with extraneous information. Avoid stringently columnar or binary input formats. Donât insist on interactive input. -
Design and build software, even operating systems, to be tried early, ideally within weeks.
Donât hesitate to throw away the clumsy parts and rebuild them. -
Use tools in preference to unskilled help to lighten a programming task,
even if you have to detour to build the tools and expect to throw some of them out after youâve finished using them.
Â
@isaacs follows this up with a thoughtful translation into nodejs terms. His whole post is worth the read, but here's a distillation:
- Working is better than perfect.
- Focus is better than features.
- Compatibility is better than purity.
- Simplicity is better than anything.

It's MIT all the way!
