It does get a little complicated when you try adding in the middleware components, and it doesn't Just Work. Frequently then you end up at some GitHub readme file as the only documentation (for first-party Microsoft components) with some very brief examples, maybe with some samples that don't quite show how you'd want to do what you want to do. Then you start digging in the source code and learning how the guts of aspnet core work.

I would agree that bailing on dogmatic 2000s OOP has been an improvement.

I think The command and observer aspects of WPF are really elegant and OOP patterns certainly have their place.

But app development isn’t a pretty place where time crunched developers are expected to carefully design complex data structures…..at all.
