I hate JavaScript and everything about it in 2022. The whole ecosystem stinks and the fact that it’s so pervasive makes me lose hope. I blame the whole thing on Microsoft and the IE team.
- dgb23 5y agoI think it fundamentally started out here: https://extensiblewebmanifesto.org/ https://extensiblewebmanifesto.org/ Very good ideas. If it was executed that way we would be in a different position. Some of the standards and browser implementations improved, many have been half baked or clunky, the JS ecosystem (which is the means to explore and extend) is chaotic and still moving incredibly fast without fundamental progress. I think two things happened since: We still don't agree on how to do interactive UI on the web and we've lost focus of this being a explorative journey that ultimately should result in agreed upon standards that everyone can build and rely on in the long term.
