The blunt truth of front-end engineering is that no user cares how beautiful your system is, only if it helps them solve their problem.

: then it's truly regrettable that people have come to associate PWAs with slow-by-default tools; not required at all.
-
the reason people are interested in the tools they use is to reduce accidental complexity and solve their problems 1/
-
preferably more easily and w/ less friction than alternatives. I doubt ES20xx is intrinsically slow by default. 2/2
-
I think he's talking about the decision to adopt tools like immutable (lives in runtime?), or async await transpiled
-
without understanding the consequences if using them like transpiled code bloat, polyfills etc
-
I mean it airways kind of boils down to "devs need to be much more aware of trade offs and conseq. 4 their decisions"
-
getting every dev to be more conscious is harder than fixing tools. Fixing tools is easier than replacing them.
-
: absolutely true that legacy tools are a huge burden. But new products/rewrites can afford to switch; gives me hope.
