I was a game developer and I pretty much grew to dislike what I had to do at my former job. Doing same kind of mindless games, over, and over and over and pretty much repeating things.

I got into web development, but for me that means mostly back end. I pretty much dislike big opinionated JS frameworks like Angular, although I have to learn it and I will since I took over a project which uses Angular on front-end. Sometimes I generate HTML on the server side, when I can, using a bit of old fashioned JS and jQuery where is needed. Sometimes I write a REST API for backend and write the frontend using good old fashioned HTML, CSS, JS and jQuery. I like this two approaches the most.

Now I'm planning to learn Blazor and Vue for SPA development.
