This is a great point. A "Cambrian explosion" the likes of which the JS ecosystem experienced over the last 10-15 years will slow down eventually. Curious to hear whether other folks agree or not.
- jscambrian 5y agoI survived the JavaScript Cambrian explosion and all I got was a disenchantment with computer programming
- mpd 5y agoTo me, it feels like the same effect as Ruby ~15-10 years ago. Lots of chaos as good (subsequently winnowed down to preferred), patterns were discovered, and then things stabilized. It isn't sexy anymore, but to this day I've yet to discover a better tool, that lets me blast out features and make changes at rapid pace, than Ruby (and Rails on the web side).
- asimpletune 5y agoYeah, it’s a great point. I always assumed that there was so much tool churning just because of the nature of the front-end itself as a target for building software. However I think the “Cambrian explosion” point here makes a lot of sense.
