But...!
I've also seen many developers for years adopting mainstream libraries and frameworks wrongly.
The atrocities I've seen built with Ember, Rails, Angular, and the like.
Often these people built their own (albeit less powerful) libraries and could work much better with them.

In my experience, if someone fails at using mainstream libraries, they will also likely fail in creating their own, at least if it is to later be used and maintained by anyone else successfully.
- k__ 5y agoI don't know about that. The problem with mainstream libraries is to grasp the mental model of their creators. I met a bunch of developers who understood software design patterns as they are taught in the GoF book, but couldn't see them when applied in a framework/library. Often this was because the design patterns weren't used 1:1 or framework creators simply used the wrong name for a pattern.
