As a front-end developer my professional experience tells me that in practice the ONLY (cannot stress this enough) thing that matters is developer convenience in the code. Everything else be damned.
That said if this UI failure was easier for the developers to code, such as no code and download from NPM, then it is most correct even if both the business and end user are both catastrophically harmed immediately.
- 8ytecoder 6y agoThere were solid good practices from the way back when Struts was a thing. Even when a server side validation fails, you can redirect the user to a page and the form can prefill the inputs (except password). This was across page refreshes. What happened to all those hard learned lessons?
- sriku 6y agoThese days you don't even get that on most occasions even in a "forgot password" flow. You still have you key in your email address or username again pretty much everywhere.
