I have been coding things that interest me as part of https://github.com/imvetri/ui-editor https://github.com/imvetri/ui-editor. This idea had been in my head when I was introduced to visual foxpro and I told the person it can be made more efficient if it can build components that can build components.
In my second company I came to know about eval - I called it a browser runtime that can execute source code. I don't have to learn anything about AST. Also I learnt about graph structure and I used it for the component tree in my tool.
In my third company I saw a technique where component configuration is saved as a JSON - I learnt that code can be a configuration and configuration is just a JSON, I dont' have to learn anything fancy about Object oriented concepts to build application.
In my fourth company I saw a neat codebase where view, css, reducers, state, events are all split into separate files and used that idea and made them as inputs.
Overall, its a hobby tool I have been building and whenever I learn interesting, simple and efficient techniques from the projects I work on, I use it in the tool.
