We need a new movement in web development. We need to make it so that it will be absolutely frowned upon to have a website that doesn't work without JavaScript enabled unless it is absolutely necessary. This MUST be a requirement for the future development of websites on the Internet. If there should be any truth to the hype about a "Web 3.0", then this is one of the most important matters besides more decentralization.

I hire these people. They love stuffing their resume with every fucking framework they can find. I know I'm dearly loved during code reviews when I see literally dozens of frameworks pulled into their projects. I make them justify every framework they attempt to use. 99% of the time, it's resume padding. I usually hear "umm... welll... it has this cool diddley do it can do." So you need an entire framework loaded in order to do this? "Uh.. yes?". What value does this offer? So now I'm trying to get them to admit resume stuffing. I seldom get an answer worth repeating. The best one was when a developer tried to load a framework in dynamically so I wouldn't notice it. I wanted to fire him on the spot.

Well sure, that is a valid point.

But, if I EVER had a developer apply for the same job without actually using a framework to handle, for example, security and authentication they wouldn't make it to the interview. Any developer that doesn't understand when to offload the roll your own to the ecosystem simply won't get in the door here.

Most of these kinds of jobs are not tooling jobs and frameworks are EXACTLY the correct tool for the job.

I have NEVER had a user open up a rails or django app and complain that we use rails or django. All that nonsense about performance is bullshit.
