> developers always vastly underestimate the difficulty of doing a UI framework or environment
Developers, managers, designers, executives, the whole process chain underestimates the complexity of building a stable and maintainable UI.
Everyone feels in their gut how complex building out a data processing pipeline or a scalable backend should be, but even people who should know better can't help but think of the UI as the "easiest" part.
In my experience, the only solution is forced minimalism. A sort of "Dogme 95" for UX. Force your UX to be a haiku, not an open-ended novel. This means pushing back hard on unnecessary complexity and focusing like a laser on what really matters.
In other words, the problems might be technical, but the solution are likely political.
