Development has begun.
100% this. If you're hiring for React then you're filtering out the best web devs on the market because those folks saw the issues with the React treadmill years ago.
You want free and deep thinkers? Folks who can solve real new problems? People who can engineer their way to solutions not just Google them?
Then you want those people who don't drink the Kool-aid!
*"But we need to be able to hire..."* Do NOT make me come over there. Did you *try* hiring for fundamentals? Did you send a rec asking for semantic HTML, modern CSS, and progressive enhancement? Because I *guarantee* you they're out there. By the thousands. Some of the very best webdevs in the world are looking for work right now, and you could *easily* hire them. How do I know? Because we opened a few recs this spring for Web Components and were *flooded* with *incredible* candidates.
CSS property syntax is the cherry on top I have been yearning for
Scott shared a great example today:
I spent many weekends trying out multiple distros and machine configurations and these are my takeaways
( tools: vim, tmux, penpot, figma, blender, browser )
- Pop_OS! on an old Carbon X1 just worked first try
- Flatpak is a mistake
- Alacritty is legit
- Tiling window managers are awesome
- Arch sway is nice but had some driver issues
- hyprland is neat but too much for me
- Linux runs really well on low powered machines ( e11 )
Arch is still my goal
