> I sketched out an alternative called "Nemesis" which grew into an HTMX-based system where it takes one programmer an hour to code a task and there is no build, and between Flask and the 15-or-so helpers it is easy
My argument here is basically creating that is really, really hard, and there's no framework or library that will make it easy.
React and friends are a mess because they're dealing with hard problems, kinda like systemd or kubernetes.
Writing code that lives entirely inside the machine is a lot easier than having to interface with the messy real world.
