I noped out of the whole web development thing. I know its where the world moved to, but I always felt it was a technological wrong turn. Java applets were great, sure they had issues, but they were solvable. But the tech giants had to ruin it so now we have JS frameworks of the week built on top of a system never meant for rich clients.
I stuck with desktop thick clients for embedded devices and scientific computing. Mostly C++ / Qt or Java / Swing / JavaFx as a tech stack. Couldn't be happier, the tech stack isn't changing under my feat constantly and I can quickly bang out features.
