I would also love some sincere answers to this question. I'm mostly a back-end person, but would love to start building some front ends that don't look quite so 1997-ish. But each time I think, "Gosh, I should learn whatever the current thing is," a) it's different than the last current thing, b) it seems to be pretty volatile in terms of frequent changes, and c) smart people have some really good critiques of things that are fundamentally wrong with it. And I feel like I've been having that experience for a decade.
- yxre 3y agoJust find a basic CSS library and use server side templating in whatever your preferred language is. As systems evolve, they always get more complex. Web front ends are evolving to keep up with users, app archetypes, and business needs. People choose tribes to identify with, angular vs react vs vue. People are ambitious and pushing their own frameworks while tearing down others. Its just programmer politics, no different from windows vs linux vs osx. I learned react, stuck with it, and it has worked out.
