And this is as it should be. Client-side developers signed up to make things for humans.

Turns out you can get paid $$$ to make things in $FAVORITE_LANGUAGE on the server too.

If you're here to make things for humans, you need to focus on user needs. "DX" is a second-order (or lower) concern.

False dichotomy. Good abstractions lead to smaller client-side code. In theory you can make it smaller but in practice messy.

I guess React and its ecosystem is bad abstraction then.

Client-side is possibly bad. People have moved to more client-side code. Native apps winning suggest not tho.

Client-side applies to native dev. Would be silly to say "hard client-side" only about web's client-side

Not saying React is bad abstraction on native though

: I'm not saying it's a bad abstraction anywhere! I'm just saying the first-order focus has to be on users.

I'm saying that if you do that blindly, you end if up with poorly maintainable code which is worse for both.

: we don't get hired to make maintainable codebases here on the client. We get hired to make UIs.
