Comments

This feels like a sentiment I'd have supported in 2019, wished we're still true in 2022, and is completely outdated in 2025.

I'm a full stack who phases in and out of feontend. I'm now all in on React + MaterialUI. Even though I think they're a bit shit.

I loved jQuery. I loved doing `$(...raw html)`. But everything it did, the browsers do natively now.

You just don't really need it anymore.
