(heads up, you need have a blank space between lines in HN to render them on different lines) I completely agree. Many people claim the web is overly complex, but then go back into the C++ world where you need a build tool to build your makefile which builds your project using cross compilation on a handful of platforms. I like to remind people that 10 years ago Android didn't exist, streaming video was still only just becoming a thing, and the iPhone had just been released and wouldn't have an "app store" for another 6 months. There have been several massive changes to the web and to computers and how we use them in that time. It only makes sense that we will use different frameworks and paradigms to create applications.
