+1 with the stack traces; I long for simple and straightforward, no magic applications.

The front-end ecosystem seems to move to the opposite; multi-stage compilation / transpilation steps even in development mode, with tooling to make it manageable and debuggable (source maps). The development mode of my current application needs to reload 35MB worth of stuff at every refresh.

(should look into whether I can optimize that, idk).
