This is an inviting read, and I think would resonate with many. I avoid javascript for the brittle timesuck it can become maintianing the past while shaking one's fist at other legacy systems. I've never known this to be a problem because I avoid systems that do this to my time, unless it's absolutely unavoidable. It makes me much more productive to use tools that work, and continue to work, so I spend more time with problems than rolling a temple to my own veneration. It might work for others, and it doesn't make it right, it might not work for me, and that doesn't make it wrong.
It's OK not to be for everyone, but your people will find whoever you are being.
Maybe try it as the content for your landing page. Lots of one liners that resonate.
- rglover 3y agoThanks for the feedback/tips, I'll give it a shot.
- j45 3y agoMy comment was in relation to the philosophy page of your framework. I thought I had included it. https://docs.cheatcode.co/joystick/philosophy https://docs.cheatcode.co/joystick/philosophy I hope you do, I'm sure there would be at least an audience of 1000 true fans for this. Its one of the only javascript frameworks that stood out to me because of that page having a real enough human story. Feels similar to the individual developer starting a project wondering if any framework is looking out for them to stay productive :) I generally avoid the javascript brittle maintenance time-sinks but using it is a reality and knowing that there's simple frameworks that can absorb and handle complexity are valid.
