Definitely does feel like something new is in the air. I got into front-end (after a few years of back-end) during the rise of jQuery and CSS layout, remained super excited about it even with the problems through the backbone years, checked out in disgust and retreated to the back end after my first few Angular apps. Apparently missed whole sub-eras (have no idea what Prettier and Parcel are). Svelte and Deno are both pretty interesting, React at least seems stable and oriented around a smallish number of straightforward concepts, seems almost safe to come back into the water. Almost :) Still wondering, though, if there aren't a lot of cases where a document-oriented approach (moving markup rather than JSON, progressive enhancement, good old standards) wouldn't serve an application domain better...
