"Let's make java similar to JavaScript" - Demandware Script

The JS thing they have now is a lot better than the XML-based pipelines they used to have before.

@CodeNoir I agree, but pipelines are visually better to see the logic

Maybe, but you are stuck with their IDE and merging is a not a good experience.

The switch to this JS-compatible language allows companies to recruit JS developers as Demandware ones. Also, in the past being a Demandware dev mostly made you stuck to Demandware dev roles. Now you can more easily move to being a frontend dev, or a NodeJS one, I guess.

@CodeNoir yes agreed, yet we have some projects which are entirely dependent of pipelines, because clients, and in those projects as a trainee

@dextel2 Totally understandable. This is probably the situation with every company that's been doing Demandware for 2+ years.
