HTML and CSS are pretty terrible languages. Basic things like form interaction, centering, printing a page of something, overwriting every default UI, etc. often take an odd amount of LOC to make basic things. We're collectively getting better via following the same spec, which is great, but challenging the browsers and even the spec can shed light on potentially better implementations. Let's not pigeonhole ourselves to a couple vendors just because it's easier and works _good enough_. My favorite web design is that '90s style where text went from very left to very right, barely any CSS, and Javascript (somehow my favorite language) was for fart buttons. I'm currently most excited about keeping up with WebRTC. And yeah, I have no interest in writing a new browser engine. |
