| Sidebar, I just want to say, you are one of the few people I’ve observed doing actual “modern” web development. When most people talk about “modern web” or modern anything in software they think it means “using all the latest tools”. That often means things like ES6 and Webpack, which have nice surfaces, but which create nightmares under the hood. That’s the opposite of what modern architecture was. It was about embracing the constraints of materials. Given the properties of concrete, what is the limit of what you can do with it. Go there, and no further. And don’t cover it up, just finish the dang slab and get on with the rest of the house. ES6 means transpiling, which means webpack, which means a massive machine of hidden complexity, which if you’re lucky exposes a nice smooth surface where everything is arrow functions and named exports. And if you’re unlucky is a flimsy piece of cardboard over the nightmare underneath. You (SourceHut) seem to be building a UI that actually takes note of how the browser is. And you are trying to push the big numbers... how reliable your service can be, how many endpoints can one person maintain, while letting the materials of the web (forms, urls) dictate the details. That’s true modernism. So, bravo. I’m glad to see you out in the world. It takes courage to step outside of the norm and I’m rooting for you. |
