That's fair, it's also nice if you have a backend in Python and a frontend in JS since mise also handles node.



Forgot about that! Yes, another significant benefit of why we use mise.

In particular, we use flask-vite and it's so nice to be able to have the right version of Node specified in the same management system as we specify the Python version. This solved a not insignificant amount of angst around FE development for me personally since I spend most of my time in the BE.

It's not like it was insurmountable before. But now, with mise, it's in that "just works" category for me.


100% agreed, it just takes a task that was a 10-15min setup depending on your environment and personal knowledge to a 2min thing. It just makes life easier and it puts the bar for starting lower, a win in my book =)
