This is just the COBOL problem in newer clothes. Raise the pay and someone will decide it's worth their time.

- fleddr 6y agoSure, but timelines are different. Angular becomes a front-end COBOL in just a few years, not 3 or 4 decades. There's more. A typical front-end architecture depends on a complex interwoven tool chain with a lifespan of at best years, sometimes even months. Same for modules. It's normalized to have an absurd dependency tree of hundreds to thousands of inter-depending modules. The vast majority of which will be abandoned in a few years.
