In '98 I uploaded an index.html for a subsection of the corporate site to the root, squashing the corporate home page in the process. We didn't have any source control or backups. I had a colleague who had the page open, and I was able to copy the code from his browser. Learned a lot that day!

Learned a lot that day! ha, I can almost see the situation as if I'd happened in my old office. Now imagine doing that with a Typescript SPA bundled using web pack :) I'm not criticising SPAs or the modern web stack in whatever flavour you choose (there are pros and cons to abstractions), but I still do miss the ability to just browse the page code, the web being more open in that regard.
