I've been programming for 20+ years and have coded in nearly everything from ASM, old school PASCAL, and FoxPro to Java, Lisp, VHDL, Erlang, OCaml. I can say without a doubt that coding in CS (with LESS, Bootstrap, Backbone/Underscore) is one of the best experiences I've had. While there are still numerous things to complain about in this environment, the best thing is that it makes me extremely productive in designing UI-driven apps. Currently I'm working on a project that is extremely heavy on the client-side and despite being the solo front-end coder, the four back-end folks can't keep up with my (RESET API) demands. Not that I am some rockstar 10x programmer - it's just that the current environment makes me the most productive I can be. With a few scripts and editor shortcuts, my workflow from code change to browser-refresh is near instantaneous.
