Pip is the Python package manager styled to look like npm the Node package manager
ReactJs is styled to look like AngularJS
The crab is the Go gopher styled to look like the Rust crab.
Oof.
I don’t know enough about node and Angular to be offended but the gopher crab may be more offensive than the vim one.
Both python and node engineers will be equally offended by the pip/npm one
Angular/react? React folk might just think it's a variation of the HTML shield, angular folk will just be happy someone has paid attention to them
I find Python and JS dependency management similar actually I love this comparison
I know that both sides can be like "at least it's not the other thing haha".
So yeah, similar
Is it just called rust crab?
named "Ferris"
Rustacean or Ferris
