fast changing

This happens because JS is such a shit language! There’s no best way (or even good way) to solve any given problem. This results in everyone reinventing the wheel every goddamned day.

Someone like you and me thinks to themselves, “this is such crap!” And they’re right! 🤣 So they come up with a new way of doing things that’s just a little bit better and they post it publicly.

Then some huge amount of new JS developers (there’s always a steady stream) and a few old ones think, “hey, this isn’t a bad idea!” So they start using the new thing. Then it becomes the hot new thing and suddenly huge amounts of JS code is depending on it.

Then people start to realize that this new way doesn’t quite work so well in certain situations so they add on to it by making new utilities/GUI libs. Others see the wisdom in this and adopt these new tools.

These new “solutions” build and grow in complexity until new JS devs working with the new paradigm think, “this is such crap!” And they’re right!
