@hbuchel I also wish to add that pure client-side Javascript powered content rendering has made reliable archival of web information very hard. @enkiusz Oh yes. I remember some discussions about how this world of frameworks killed off that early "learn web dev by looking at view source" and people kind of hand waved that off ("who does that anymore", "there are better ways to learn", etc) But this is the other side of that. So many of these apps/websites are just broken if you try to archive/save them. @enkiusz And I feel like this is such a special part of the web, the GOOD part, the preserving of information. It's definitely deteriorated. |
@hbuchel I'm no frontend JS expert but the guy seems to have hit a nail on the head. I now have a clear picture as to why *selecting text in an input field* in an internal corporate webapp I need to use is slow as shit. All powered by the newest shiny Dart frameworks giving tens of megabytes of JS for my browser to run.
