So-called “backend” I was OK with. HTTP is well-specified. It’s a too general of a protocol what it’s being used for, so you’re stuck implementing the same stuff over and over again. When using SMTP or NNTP you realise how much work the protocol does for you when building systems on top of it.
But “frontend”… Jesus talk about abusing something that was never designed to be used like it is. Total nightmare in my opinion! UIs which are totally inconsistent in appearance and behaviour has somehow become the norm!
Yeah I hated Web development when ever i had to do it. Web development as a whole feels half undercooked and half overcooked.
