tldr; everything is too hard I have been writing code for more than 20 years and writing JavaScript for more than 11 years full time. The UI, accessibility included, is not the challenge. I have been doing this long enough at enough employers to watch people fail the same ways over and over and consistently qualify bad decisions with the same repeated excuses. > This is such a gross oversimplification of the problem It is not an oversimplification if proven in practice more than once. > rarely do I see anyone praising it as it deserves I love JavaScript/TypeScript. Some of the complaints against JS are absolutely justified and some aren't. The unjustified complaints are typically from insecure developers of other languages that loathe the completely foreign expressiveness and flexibility allowed by JS. The mountains of code some developers require to perform trivial tasks is absolutely worthy of ridicule though.
