Shownotes

In this episode, we talk to Chris Ferdinandi believes that many of our modern best practices are harming the web.

Chris has ideas for a new set of best practices that bring more simplicity and sanity to the dev process. They involve such heretical ideas as not using the popular JavaScript frameworks, and using vanilla JavaScript instead.

We also delve into static site generators, and how the complexity that frontend development has morphed into creates exclusionary “gatekeeping”.
