I've just demoed a new exciting way of developing web, to some managers. I call it "GAFAP", which stands for "Giving A Fuck About People": so using HTML, CSS, modern standards to build in accessibility and reduce JS. I sent this quote from @slightlyoff in the post-demo show-notes: "It is not an exaggeration to say that modern frontend is so enamoured of post-scarcity fairy tales that it is mortgaging the web's future for another night drinking at the JavaScript party." https://infrequently.org/2022/12/performance-baseline-2023/
