An overwhelming number of frameworks and tooling available today gives the impression that web development has gotten perhaps too complex. Juan Diego Rodríguez explores if web development really is that complex and, most importantly, how we can prevent it from getting even more difficult than we already perceive it to be.
There’s a cat parasite that gets in humans and may make them more self centered and aggressive. It may also compel us to create new JS frameworks with complex compilation steps.
But seriously the point is unless you have a large Dev team working on large projects the benefits are minimal. So we are choosing to complicate our projects for little gain.
When the author says “our” they mean Joe and Jane web dev. Some other groups they consider as possible sources of complexity are standards bodies, large tech companies, and increasing user expectations.
Whose fault would it be otherwise?
