Why no yarn

I don't think Yarn is relevant in 2019 anymore. I personally believe that the JS community is divided enough in its tooling already and we don't need even more fragmentation. Stick with npm.

Yarn allows for using workspaces which is very useful and more flexible than lerna. It's too good to pass up.

Why no semicolons

Idk I think no semi looks nicer.

Why no gulp/grunt

It's 2021
