Hi,

I've had the luck to work on a 10 years old Django System. Everyone from the 6 people working on it said it was the purest sh.t they saw.

On the other hand, I need to learn new stuff. I tried Express or other JS fmw but these are not new things.

You can get pretty sh.tty unusable code with a monolith, while state-of-the-art is expected to be understood and seek by people that crave for more.

Tbh, I think it all depends on how well a team is prepared, and ofc it is more complex with the later tools, but they definitely avoid a lot of useless and shame code.

It is also very common that business hasn't validated their initial client base.
