I started coding BASIC in the late 80s and built websites before CSS and JS was a thing in addition to just coding stuff in whatever language took my fancy to solve whatever whimsical project I had that day, I had a particular affinity for optimising getpixel and putpixel routines in ASM when you could still directly address video memory.
On the one hand this is great because programming is in my bones and I know whatever comes along I'll figure out.
It's also terrible because sometimes something that looks like a rebranded version of what I already know is actually a fantastic new and easier way of doing things, and it's really easy to miss something great.
This just doesn't feel like something great, it just feels like another branded corporate way to structure code that there's dozens of examples of already, it's not an improvement just an alternative, if that makes sense.
