Practical for front-end devs, not so much for us users who have to live with laughably shitty js-reimplementations of decades old built-in browser functionality…

Heaven forbid you’re on a shitty internet connection, these inane js-behemoths just die from a dropped tcp connection, since they’re built on the most optimistic assumptions about network connectivity.

I remember when accessibility was a part of web development, but I guess the ROI was to low.

I did mention that our clients are enterprise-level.

But I did fail to address a more general decision-making process regarding choosing frontend architecture. If I did (and I probably will soon), I would talk a lot about the egregious initial load times on too many blogs that roll crazy dynamic tools for what should be a completely static site.

Yeah, I’m sorry. Looking back at it, that comment was written in general exasperation with the current state of the web, not really at you in particular.

Your exasperation is absolutely shared. Thanks for engaging
