I’m currently learning frontend (vanilla JS and bootstrap) and client-side render the UI for some of my ideas. From my understanding, modern frameworks(React) use both. Why would you limit yourself to just server-side? Isn’t there a trade o

I don’t know, I’m a AI PhD dropout so deep into the job search struggle that I’ll take any job that comes my way. I did have serious moral doubts when I was interviewing for some startups tho. The inner conflict is definitely there.
