Well, it isn't just about that. I don't mean just simple libraries, or anything.
I mean things on the scale of tools like Maven/Gradle. and various programs of a similar caliber.
Unless that could be treated the same in this scenario.
Technically they make the work of a developer simpler and help them in doing so without reinventing the wheel so I would treat them similarly and if you understand the internals or the processes then just try contributing to the parts that you feel isn't good or problematic or atleast raise a issue on the repo so that someone might notice it and try fixing it or you might get clarity on why something is like that and what they considered while doing that or if you can fix it try to raise a pull request after all you are free to ask or contribute.
I have also got replies on repos which explained why something was done in some way and not the other way and most of them reply with atleast some kind of explanation or link to resources. If you don't understand still then you can try asking here and most probably someone would explain you that.
BTW if I am not satisfied with a tool I try looking for alternatives that might have the things or features that I need.
What about IDEs? There's not really any alternatives for that, and to me, they seem too complex.
Yes, people tell me to learn, and I want to, but things like IntelliJ, which I tried just overwhelm me. And they feel overbloated, with no menu organization that makes them beginner friendly, nor do they explain their features.
Is it okay to be upset with an IDE for this reason, or am I making a fuss over a learning curve? Because I honestly don't know what approach I should take to being scared of tools, and programs, etc.
