This feels a tad reductionist based on my experience. Sure, most apps are designed around an agreed-upon set of affordances and design principles that the community determines, but modeling application behavior for real-world scenarios involves way more than theming a bootstrap component. I think it’s a mistake to reduce a developer down to the code that they write, because the ultimate value of a developer is in the code that they choose not to write just as much as the code they do write.
