• The conjunction of the web

  But how do we explain the complexity of the current toolset? This is where the Law of the instrument kicks in: "If the only tool you have is a hammer, it is tempting to treat everything as if it were a nail.". Even if JavaScript was born in the web, JavaScript centered frameworks do not fit properly in the web. That is why we have huge bundles of JavaScript, that is why RSC are necessary (things like RSC were... - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Ask HN: Why is web development such a daunting task?

  Skip javascript entirely. Pynecone (https://pynecone.io/), Vaadin (https://vaadin.com/), Buffalo (https://github.com/gobuffalo/buffalo) all exist and can help you avoid some of the mess that is web/JS development. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
