- noobermin 4y agoThat's a bit of an extreme and that isn't what I or anyone else in OP was saying was the only alternative for a six page web app. There is definitely a space between plain HTML and the "hybrid Angular-React-Vue frontend[0]" that doesn't require a huge number of js frameworks to render six pages. [0] yes even I Mr. scientist know that's a joke, but don't think it's too far off.
- V__ 4y agoA slideshow and some toggle functionality is fine. But you don't need a react/vue etc framework for that, and 99% of websites fall within this requirement.
- rchaud 4y agoThis is a styling issue for the majority of web apps. I know that personally, I would prefer a Jira (or Twitter) that doesn't show a half-rendered page with a million little spinners in every content area. This is using what I imagine is some kind of React-like abomination. It is the furthest thing from fast, or attractive.
