And it was an absolute fucking nightmare to maintain and work on. You either never did serious front end dev at the time or you just have an extreme case of rose tinted glasses.

Compared to now?! Or you mean it was already terrible by then, bring back HTML, CSS, and Flash?

I agree with GP, that stack described above was a fucking nightmare.

Typescript and react are a joy to work with. I miss them every day I do only python, which has been my bread and butter for 16 years.

The framework landscape for SSR is not as good but it's getting there definitely. Nextjs is promising nowadays.
