No judgment, but what particular aspect of Next.js or React hindered you? How much JavaScript experience did you have before undertaking the task?

- kaycebasques 5y agoI was on Google's Web DevRel team for 6 years. Owned all the Chrome DevTools and Lighthouse docs for 4 years and led content strategy for https://web.dev https://web.dev and https://developer.chrome.com https://developer.chrome.com for 2 years. Lots of experience building small applications in vanilla HTML/CSS/JS and I build toy apps in whatever frameworks are currently popular. I'm a technical writer by trade so I usually don't have time / motivation / business rationale to dive into a particular framework to the point of mastery but definitely am not a novice either! This comment [1] describes exactly how I shot myself in the foot w/ hooks. In my head this is how React talks to me now: "Tell me your dependencies. NO NOT THAT KIND OF DEPENDECY!!"
