My take on the endless cycle of change is that I love the enthusiasm and passion still being poured into the field but I must be diligent in evaluating what is being presented before believing it. Whenever a new framework or tool comes to my attention I try to ask myself what problem is this solving and do I actually have that problem? Most solutions usually come with trade offs and the times where I have made the best decisions are always when I understand what I am gaining at the expense of what it costs me. I try to remember that every new thing tries, rightfully so, to put its best foot forward and if I fail to do my due diligence in evaluating its offerings compared to my needs that I am doing myself a disservice. I fully admit that I too sometimes find the noise of all the enthusiasm to be a bit taxing but I try to remind myself that I hear all the noise because I am excited about web dev. In the times where I am not tired of the noise I am seeking more and more of the latest and greatest. So I try to remind myself it’s ok to not pay attention to every single thing; not knowing about one particular thing will not prohibit me from making great things with what I do know. It sounds like you are enjoying webdev so my advice is to do just that and remember that all the hype is just someone else’s passion for webdev too.
