Yeah, sorry if I wasn't clear, but that's kind-of my point. You can make a site by knowing how to use some subset of stuff, but the rest you use as a black box

Yeah, sorry if I wasn't clear, but that's kind-of my point. You can make a site by knowing how to use some subset of stuff, but the rest you use as a black box - whether it is importing a bunch of third party libraries or being able to build a web app without understanding how cross-site attacks work, etc etc so at some point you either have to learn these little gotchyas all over the place or they go un-fixed.
Like how many sites still don't have mandatory HTTPS even though it is free and easy?
- jimmaswell 7y agoThat's no different from programming in any other environment then - good libraries are generally meant to work like black boxes and security issues etc happen everywhere.
