I dunno. I've dabbled a bit in programming (professionally for about 40 years) and I maintain and support the C++ toolchain for a major commercial embedded operating system. I have the opposite experience and opinion about C and C++ development and of the modern framework-based packaged flavour-of-the-month silver bullet solutions marketed as easy and cheap replacements for an educated and skilled workforce that permeate today's web developer market. So, you know, your experience may vary.
