I have barely 2 years of experience in software development, so I wasn't around doing Delphi and stuff (I vagely remember seeing a Pascal book at my grandparent's).

However I feel like the current paradigm of declarative ui, with automatic re-render, like React (and what I actually use: Compose Multiplatform) is very good for producing maintainable applications and encourages UI decoupling.

I agree that the dependency hell and project setup parts on the web are horrible, but I wouldn't say it's part of "UI Development".

First time someone used “grandparent” and I could relate :-)

My grandfather, on the other hand, was a gold miner in Alaska, then returned to Seattle in the 1920s just in time for the Great Depression. So I’m just a bit older than you ;)
