Thank you for this insight!

Electron is an interesting example. If you are smart, you can use it to deploy your application to desktop, as well as the web. Meaning you don't have to have 4 separate teams for Windows, Mac, Linux, Web. Being productive with Electron is therefore a competitive skill in my opinion.
I often have to argue with older engineers. There are a lot of prejudice against current technologies, like for example Node: "JavaScript is a dumb language", "it's not real programming", etc. I am exagerating, of course, but the attitudes are still there. So I am trying to build a compelling case for learning and developing.
