This is especially frustrating for job seekers. I've seen so many job listings calling for extensive experience with Bootstrap, for example. Why would knowledge of CSS and the grid system not suffice there?

It's a bit disheartening to see titles like "Ember ninja" and "Angular guru", if only because recruiters don't know that both of those things are just JavaScript frameworks.

I'm excited for Web Components but I wonder how it will play out practically. Do people put "HTML Expert" on their resumes today?

Because their current system might already be using Bootstrap, so they need someone who understands it to be able to continue the work.
