Why Is Web Development A Cluster F*ck?

Web development is regarded by many as an absolute cluster f*ck. You can't just grab the "right" language and start making a website, there is a seemingly endless supply of no-code tools, libraries, JavaScript frameworks, and more. Even if you and a developer friend are trying to make the exact same project, your finished product will likely be largely the same...but the technology that powers it can be wildly different. What makes matters worse is that problems in the industry are addressed relatively quickly by community projects that of course spawn competing alternatives, and then rather quickly (at times) become old and outdated by even more modern solutions that push them out of the way. While it's great to have such an active community, if you're looking from the outside in, the web development industry looks like a total disaster. In this episode, Matt and Mike explore why web development seems so messy.

This is the first episode that I have heard from your channel and I am already hooked! I loved and agreed with practically every single thing you guys were talking about fantastic stuff please keep it up 👌🏼💯 Also for reference, I’m a senior web/software engineer with over 13+ years in the tech field so hearing stuff like this and all the solid talking points just gets my nerd heart pumping lol

This is so true. It's saturated with so many languages and frameworks. And telling someone to work with a framework or use a tool that you don't fully understand just leads to more confusion.

Very good podcast guys, keep it up! The message of this episode was lifesaver for me. Helped a bunch to put things in perspective.
