Totally agree with the sentiment. I see engineers put to much time and energy focusing on frameworks and architecture and not enough time on building business value.
The joy of Rails is that for the most part you can just focus on getting shit done, focus on building value instead of figure out the right directory structure or which latest framework to use (learn) on your project.
I have yet to see a demonstrable benefit from the single page app, front end framework, microservice backend that I didn’t have with a Rails monolith 10 years ago. The majority of what I see these days is unwarranted complexity.
- nurettin 9y agomaking a game in a browser is a nice use case for react.js, I agree that business apps could do with simpler controls. That said, some responsiveness is unavoidable in business apps, because entering data to lists and grids takes time and if the browser crashes or is inadvertently closed, all that work will be gone.
