If the healthcare sector would apply the same ideas and principles of the front-end industry, it'd look like this: oh,look, it's a pen! Why don't we combine it with a scalpel and an angle grinder for our next surgery?

Front-end is an absolute shit show with all the html/css/js mixture.



You mean _Web_ Front-End.

Do not forget Web is delivering to a lot of platforms. Try the same with desktop apps or mobile apps. Good luck.


I get it, there's mobile, desktop, even fridges,or doorbells that require front-end interfaces. I also understand it's not easy.im fact it's hard.very hard. But currently it's a shit show nonetheless, because everyone is going their own director with no plan to somehow unify or at least standardise the whole thing. And it's getting more and more absurd every day.


The trend seems to be using HTML/CSS/JS for "native" app frontends as well, see Electron an the countless apps that use it.


And yet, there’s no other platform where you can go from an idea to something easily accessible by anyone in the world — in a span of minutes.


Your opinion is unoriginal and unhelpful. Show me another platform with the reach and usability as the web.
