90% of web dev is CRUD and landing pages, so yeah. But this kind of development starts with non-technical product people and designers crafting "unique" requirements and only including engineers at the implementation phase, so "everything is customized". Even within a single product you won't see standardization and automation, just a massive amount of redundancy due to a very fragmented and non-engineering-centric development cycles. The limitations of things like Wix or Wordpress works in their favor.
But the sibling reply makes an important point: most of the tech from Twitter is there because of scale. That's perhaps part of the 10%.
