tbh, and while knowing this argument is hard to push on most companies, « old web technologies » are just as relevant as one decade ago.
If I look at any project I’ve made for the last ten years with « hype technologies », REST APIs everywhere, complex front end frameworks (so complex that it’s literally a second codebase), they totally could have been developed with an old and mature framework like Django, RoR or ASP.Net.
Once those projects are done, you clearly can see that : things like sending a form are incredibly complex and non standard, ressources are wasted everywhere, and only 1 to 3 APIs are used externally, and you maintain the dozen others for your own usage.
The sole reason we are on more complex stack is because the industry magically acknowledged that « web development » was in fact two different jobs.
