Front end development is a total mess. The fact that you have to know: html5 , css3 and JavaScript with all the different frameworks is ridiculous....
For me the sane solution is: Elm-lang.
It's a total delight, similar to Haskell but easier plus the elm architecture makes developing web applications very simple...
I'd say that Elm's biggest feature is architectural integrity...
- dogfishbar 10y agoI'm teaching a sophomore level web apps course in the spring semester. I'm torn between doing what I think will help them land an internship this summer or land a real job and on the other hand, teaching them something like Elm which makes much more sense to me. Anybody willing to weigh in on these? It would be greatly appreciated. 1. Would a course focussing on just the front end using HTML + CSS + JS + React be reasonable? 2. Is it reasonable to deal only with the front end? 3. If the answer to 2. is no, then what is most reasonable and likely to endure technology for the back end?
