We're modernizing it, but it's very slow work. A significant part of the work is improving the organization of scripts, of which there are thousands. We're not even prioritizing getting rid of jQuery, because it works. To rewrite all the stuff that works, instead of focusing on structural matters, dependency management, maintainability and security, would be insane. (And that's just the JS bits, on top of which there's all the legacy .NET stuff to do.) We aim to get it into a state that will leave it working and maintainable in future without excessive effort.\n\nSometimes I wonder who these people are who always promote this year's library or framework, then next year promote something newer. Do they work in real companies with real applications under heavy use? Have they ever had to maintain a codebase that was written more than 6 months ago? Or do they just build proofs of concept and small apps and pontificate a lot, then move on to the next job before things get serious?","removed":false,"published":"2023-07-15T15:28:34.898431Z","updated":"2023-07-15T15:32:03.064324Z","deleted":false,"ap_id":"https://lemmy.ca/comment/1239189","local":false,"path":"0.358492","distinguished":false,"language_id":37},"creator":{"id":1428,"name":"floofloof","banned":false,"published":"2023-06-16T20:57:24.782101Z","actor_id":"https://lemmy.ca/u/floofloof","local":false,"deleted":false,"bot_account":false,"instance_id":37},"post":{"id":85133,"name":"How

confused when I see memes like this\n\nYou learn js, then you learn a bit about ts and pick react/vue if you want to do frontend or nodejs if you're into backend. Then you do something basic, like a barebones twitter clone, weather app, etc. By the point when you're 80% done, you will know most important parts of the ecosystem naturally\n\nAfter that, learning all the supporting libraries/frameworks is super simple since next is just superset around react, same for nuxt. Solid, svelte, fresh etc are just different flavors of react. Even vue is looking like react this days with composition api, simply because they nailed the simplicity and dev comfort. Average dev will never face weird js/ts parts or confusing libraries because most of their day to day job will be moving buttons and looking how to persist user basket in browser storage...\n\nSure there are a lot of libraries and ways to do stuff, but 90% of them are irrelevant, only-for-hobby or simply dead and unused since 2010. Knowing ts+(react|vue)+(vuex|redux-tk|mobx)+(styled|tailwind) will land someone a basic job where they can progress and expand their knowledge lol","removed":false,"published":"2023-07-15T15:51:44.696032Z","deleted":false,"ap_id":"https://lemmy.world/comment/1304172","local":false,"path":"0.360643","distinguished":false,"language_id":37},"creator":{"id":52042,"name":"delirium","display_name":"delirium","avatar":"https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/2a1b6a1a-4ba1-48b1-8e8f-6c19f3f5d789.png","banned":false,"published":"2023-06-14T11:00:04.296352Z","actor_id":"https://lemmy.world/u/delirium","bio":"Person behind Arctius for lemmy :)\nMy other account: [delirium@lemm.ee](https://lemmy.world/u/delirium@lemm.ee)\n\nI like cats and chickens.","local":false,"banner":"https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a18b7064-78cd-40ea-946c-7c527e04010f.jpeg","deleted":false,"bot_account":false,"instance_id":24},"post":{"id":85133,"name":"How it feels to learn JS in ~~2016~~ 2023","url":"https://hackernoon.com/how-it-feels-to-learn-javascript-in-2016-d3a717dd577f","body":"I learned \"pure\" JS back in 2013, when HTML5 was brand new, and I still don't get most of the stuff going on nowadays.","creator_id":4803,"community_id":334,"removed":false,"locked":false,"published":"2023-07-15T14:55:26.550527Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"embed_title":"How it feels to learn JavaScript in 2016 | HackerNoon","embed_description":"No JavaScript frameworks were created during the writing of this article.","thumbnail_url":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/4048f0ce-2634-4d31-9a1c-d6aab5582e44.png","ap_id":"https://programming.dev/post/675212","local":false,"language_id":37,"featured_community":false,"featured_local":false},"community":{"id":334,"name":"programmer_humor","title":"Programmer Humor","description":"Welcome to Programmer Humor!\n\nThis is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!\n\nFor sharing awful code theres also [Programming Horror](https://programming.dev/c/programming_horror).\n\n## Rules\n- Keep content in english\n- No advertisements\n- Posts must be related to programming or programmer topics","removed":false,"published":"2023-06-12T23:22:30.213448Z","updated":"2023-08-11T17:48:04.343031Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"actor_id":"https://programming.dev/c/programmer_humor","local":false,"icon":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/170721ad-9010-470f-a4a4-ead95f51f13b.png","banner":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/ab84fc81-cbba-4504-b55b-2c886fe2624f.png","hidden":false,"posting_restricted_to_mods":false,"instance_id":22,"visibility":"Public"},"counts":{"comment_id":360643,"score":12,"upvotes":14,"downvotes":2,"published":"2023-07-15T15:51:44.696032Z","child_count":8},"creator_banned_from_community":false,"banned_from_community":false,"creator_is_moderator":false,"creator_is_admin":false,"subscribed":"NotSubscribed","saved":false,"creator_blocked":false},{"comment":{"id":379334,"creator_id":3018,"post_id":85133,"content":"I stepped out of webdev like 5 years ago.

We're so much more productive now and happy working on the code base. Refactors are much easier than before as well.\n\nI've worked on massive jQuery code bases before and they turn into worthless spaghetti code in no time at all. Dynamically altering html with no source of truth is the worst pattern you could have on a frontend. I have a ton of respect for what the jQuery library introduced but it was never a framework and was used in a terrible patchwork way. I wouldn't even bother trying to save any of it. Clean split and keep that codebase tightly quarantined behind lock and key and don't let it even touch the new code base.

Of them all them JS frameworks/libraries is one of the less opinionated and with less batteries included. By design it does not does everything. Most other frameworks do way more.\n\nIt lets you define custom components. The components can have properties that their parent component defines and internal state. If the state or the properties change the component gets redrawn (magically). There are some lifetime functionalities (things to do on first render for example) and performance improving stuff (memoization) but mostly that’s it.\n\nAll the other features you talk about are third party libraries or frameworks that can operate with react or are build on top of and cover the bases, like routing, fetching, caches, server side rendering, styling utility libraries, component libraries, animation libraries, global state management, etc.\n\nThe big difference with the vanilla way is that the approach is mostly declarative. The runtime takes charge of updating the DOM when your components state or properties change.\n\nYou take a big performance hit, and an even bigger bundle size one, but the speed of development and huge ecosystem of readymade solutions can be really important for some use cases.\n\n\nOther frameworks take different approaches to solve the same problems:\n- Component system for code reuse and organization.\n- Some way to manage state \n- Some way to decide what to re-render and when.\n- Extra stuff. Some frameworks end here, some have tools for everything you would need for a web app.","removed":false,"published":"2023-07-16T14:25:39.953773Z","deleted":false,"ap_id":"https://beehaw.org/comment/681680","local":false,"path":"0.379334.386205","distinguished":false,"language_id":37},"creator":{"id":15281,"name":"Mars","avatar":"https://beehaw.org/pictrs/image/3e21694a-17fa-40a9-81e9-ada76d17bd66.png","banned":false,"published":"2023-06-01T09:58:24.417984Z","actor_id":"https://beehaw.org/u/Mars","bio":" [Mastodon](https://indieweb.social/@mars)","local":false,"deleted":false,"bot_account":false,"instance_id":2},"post":{"id":85133,"name":"How it feels to learn JS in ~~2016~~ 2023","url":"https://hackernoon.com/how-it-feels-to-learn-javascript-in-2016-d3a717dd577f","body":"I learned \"pure\" JS back in 2013, when HTML5 was brand new, and I still don't get most of the stuff going on nowadays.","creator_id":4803,"community_id":334,"removed":false,"locked":false,"published":"2023-07-15T14:55:26.550527Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"embed_title":"How it feels to learn JavaScript in 2016 | HackerNoon","embed_description":"No JavaScript frameworks were created during the writing of this article.","thumbnail_url":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/4048f0ce-2634-4d31-9a1c-d6aab5582e44.png","ap_id":"https://programming.dev/post/675212","local":false,"language_id":37,"featured_community":false,"featured_local":false},"community":{"id":334,"name":"programmer_humor","title":"Programmer Humor","description":"Welcome to Programmer Humor!\n\nThis is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!\n\nFor sharing awful code theres also [Programming Horror](https://programming.dev/c/programming_horror).\n\n## Rules\n- Keep content in english\n- No advertisements\n- Posts must be related to programming or programmer topics","removed":false,"published":"2023-06-12T23:22:30.213448Z","updated":"2023-08-11T17:48:04.343031Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"actor_id":"https://programming.dev/c/programmer_humor","local":false,"icon":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/170721ad-9010-470f-a4a4-ead95f51f13b.png","banner":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/ab84fc81-cbba-4504-b55b-2c886fe2624f.png","hidden":false,"posting_restricted_to_mods":false,"instance_id":22,"visibility":"Public"},"counts":{"comment_id":386205,"score":4,"upvotes":4,"downvotes":0,"published":"2023-07-16T14:25:39.953773Z","child_count":0},"creator_banned_from_community":false,"banned_from_community":false,"creator_is_moderator":false,"creator_is_admin":false,"subscribed":"NotSubscribed","saved":false,"creator_blocked":false},{"comment":{"id":1520741,"creator_id":23446,"post_id":85133,"content":"The thing is, they look like too much for a simple app with near none interactive elements.\n\nBut once app starts growing, concepts like reusable components, reactivity and state management become such an important tool.\n\nImagine tracking shopping cart's total value. With these frameworks it's just one store containing total value, exposing the value as reactive state. Once the value changes, all components using directly or indirectly that value update immediately. In vanilla you would have to keep track of every instance where that value is used manually.\n\nAdditionally, if you decide keeping total value of cart in frontend is stupid (because it is), you just modify your store to provide only readonly value, and create setters that require you to pass item or item id. Then that setter would hit up backend keeping your cart's total value, add an item, and backend would return new total, which would now be set as that store's new total value.\n\nThese frameworks are kind of SOLID principles applied to chaotic world of user interfaces.","removed":false,"published":"2023-08-26T11:18:02.718797Z","deleted":false,"ap_id":"https://lemmy.world/comment/2819871","local":false,"path":"0.379334.1520741","distinguished":false,"language_id":0},"creator":{"id":23446,"name":"gornius","banned":false,"published":"2023-07-01T11:28:40.967312Z","actor_id":"https://lemmy.world/u/gornius","local":false,"deleted":false,"bot_account":false,"instance_id":24},"post":{"id":85133,"name":"How it feels to learn JS in ~~2016~~ 2023","url":"https://hackernoon.com/how-it-feels-to-learn-javascript-in-2016-d3a717dd577f","body":"I learned \"pure\" JS back in 2013, when HTML5 was brand new, and I still don't get most of the stuff going on nowadays.","creator_id":4803,"community_id":334,"removed":false,"locked":false,"published":"2023-07-15T14:55:26.550527Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"embed_title":"How it feels to learn JavaScript in 2016 | HackerNoon","embed_description":"No JavaScript frameworks were created during the writing of this article.","thumbnail_url":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/4048f0ce-2634-4d31-9a1c-d6aab5582e44.png","ap_id":"https://programming.dev/post/675212","local":false,"language_id":37,"featured_community":false,"featured_local":false},"community":{"id":334,"name":"programmer_humor","title":"Programmer Humor","description":"Welcome to Programmer Humor!\n\nThis is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!\n\nFor sharing awful code theres also [Programming Horror](https://programming.dev/c/programming_horror).\n\n## Rules\n- Keep content in english\n- No advertisements\n- Posts must be related to programming or programmer topics","removed":false,"published":"2023-06-12T23:22:30.213448Z","updated":"2023-08-11T17:48:04.343031Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"actor_id":"https://programming.dev/c/programmer_humor","local":false,"icon":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/170721ad-9010-470f-a4a4-ead95f51f13b.png","banner":"https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/ab84fc81-cbba-4504-b55b-2c886fe2624f.png","hidden":false,"posting_restricted_to_mods":false,"instance_id":22,"visibility":"Public"},"counts":{"comment_id":1520741,"score":1,"upvotes":1,"downvotes":0,"published":"2023-08-26T11:18:02.718797Z","child_count":0},"creator_banned_from_community":false,"banned_from_community":false,"creator_is_moderator":false,"creator_is_admin":false,"subscribed":"NotSubscribed","saved":false,"creator_blocked":false}]}
