TIL (Today I learned) that writing websites with simple HTML and CSS is now called "post-framework". Well. I did "post-framework" even before frameworks existed and I never stopped writing that little bit of HTML and CSS needed for static pages myself. I guess I'm so old that it is considered being young again :) (frantically adding "20+ years of experience and practice with post-framework web design" to my CV ;)

@jwildeboer This is the way to go.. again!
We have made development so complicated with all kinds of frameworks, libraries, managing tools and other cruft, it's ridiculous. Tools don't guarantee the outcome.
I have been doing webdev for 15+ years now. Simple(r) always wins. I am back to CSS only. Being able to move things between pc's and continue coding. No extra tools, processors etc. It's a great workflow.. 'post-framework'? Sure, name it that.
@hbons @jwildeboer Sure, that's a step higher, going to make parts dynamic, singular. You should!
Point is, getting to build a webpage needs very little tools. (Editor and a browser). I guess the art is coming back! :)
ps: Regarding the 15+ thing, I wrote my first HTML in the Netscape Editor. Netscape.. so good!
@hbons I've had sites there. Good times! I get what you are saying, it was so magical.
Then came Flash!
