*sigh* okay:
Frontend dev: hard.
Backend dev: hard.
Language design: hard.
Writing docs: hard.
HTML/CSS: hard.
UI design: hard.
Communicating: hard.
Leading people: hard.
Management: hard.
It's all hard. Each one of these is an endless rabbit hole. And it's not a competition.
I wish we had a LegacyConf, where companies and startups could share practical case studies of how they deal with legacy at their companies, whether in frontend, backend, infrastructure, anywhere.
Timeless software engineering skills:
1. Not feeling scared to change code you didn't write
2. Empathy for your users and for your collaborators
3. Ability to communicate ideas clearly
I'd hire someone with these skills any day.
Hooks are amazing ! less boilerplate / wrappers and encourage you to write more readable and clean components ! this is really a game changer for @reactjs !
#reactconf
Visual Studio Code can now convert your long chains of Promise.then()'s into async/await! 🎊 Works very well in both JavaScript and TypeScript files. .catch() is also correctly converted to try/catch ✅
