Were you teaching for a software engineering degree or a comp sci degree? Former is more focused on practical skills that are more “useful”, hence all those cross-discipline courses.

I’d argue that the core comp sci skill is more useful than learning how to use React or whatever. But I guess I’m another old man yelling at cloud.

Good point. It was Software Engineering, but I still expected to see more foundational classes there :(

And I'm totally ok with the React part, I just dislike the fact that React was the only real "meat" in the course.
