My contribution would be to point out the Rule of Least Power to people again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_least_power https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_least_power A lot of the times when technology is being created in a space where existing technologies already solve the problem, and even moresoe when these frameworks are an "extension" of such platforms, the NIH syndrome comes as a cause of being unfamiliar with how the original technology solves the problem. Rather than RTFM and internalizing that way of thinking, the libraries are rebuilt. Even worse, some get adopted by new developers that don't know better as being standard. jQuery, motherfucker, I'm looking at you. HTML5 and CSS can go further than many expect, including myself.
