I’m tired of everyone talking about the frontend as if it’s a monolith. In a world where web uses span all the way from a blog with a contact form to an entire app like Gmail it’s silly to pretend there’s only one answer.
I think we’re still suffering from “everything with React” syndrome, I’ve never used htmx but if it can help as an antidote I’m all in.
This is so true. I have two real hobbies - web dev and wood working. One thing that makes me chuckle is the different takes the communities have on tools. In the web dev people constantly argue about how there is one best tool!!! The wood workers make an art form out of collecting the most tools possible, because each tool has a job and the person who dies with the most tools wins.
