All they need now is a Twitter account, a GitHub org, and a mandatory CLA, then it’ll be a real framework. To their credit, they have the requisite number of emojis to be perceived as relevant. And I applaud that it can be grokked relatively quickly.

Don’t forget a “code of conduct” and “diversity and inclusion”.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

This parody website is probably close to 10 years old so it’s a bit outdated. But the premise still stands, just needs more feature checkboxes :)

What? You mean it's not been maintained and there is no latest version? I've been using this on many of my sites, which I'm sure now is full of security holes and will break in modern (or ancient) browsers. Please someone suggest an alternative.

I personally use http://nojs.io/

I recently tried to make as terrible of an app backend as possible: https://github.com/winrid/terrible-express-app Challenge: figure out how it starts, and how content is rendered. (It's not that hard, but a little funny)

Love the .idea directory in the repository (despite large .gitignore) and how you lie about package-lock.json. PwC, or Accenture would charge 5mln EUR for it and be perfectly self-confident about it.

The sarcasm is real: the web has gotten out of control by a series of overly bloated framework designs that have resulted in a domino effect that has made the web slower, less user friendly, and buggier.

Every problem can be solved with Angular, Observables, ngrx and a 5mln EUR conference for managers. Everything with Azure k8s - locally including mobile, and on the cloud. Simply disregard the feedback of technical grunts who will merely implement, although complain how little progress they make.

Exactly. If a simple website is overloaded with JS it's because you're the product not the user.

Did anyone else look at the embedded .js file? It's clearly just a load of junk cribbed from elsewhere... but this bit made me chuckle: "__SECRET_INTERNALS_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED"

I thought it was from the React codebase, but it's differently named there: https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/b2ca3349c27b57b1e9462...
