In my 20 years as a developer I’ve learned that the more polished something looks on the surface, the more complex the codebase under the hood becomes. Things are simple to the end user because of all that complexity.

That is my experience, too. I worked on a SPA with a more or less simple looking table that presented hierarchical data and made them editable with form elements. Under the hood there were hundred lines of very dense rxjs code and the whole thing was communicating with about 10 HTTP endpoints. But it looked simple.
