The Struggle

Content CODE COMMENTS BE LIKE STOP THIS IS A STOP SIGN

Picture this: you FINALLY master HTML and CSS, feeling like a coding deity. Then JavaScript shows up. Fine, you conquered that too. But wait—React wants a word. TypeScript is knocking at your door. Vite just moved in. Next.js is doing parkour on your roof. And now the cursor is literally floating above your head like some kind of existential threat. The web dev tech stack has become a never-ending staircase of frameworks and tools, each one stacked precariously on top of the last. You're not climbing the career ladder anymore—you're just trying not to fall down this JavaScript-flavored Escher painting. By 2026, we'll probably need a framework to manage our frameworks. Oh wait, we already do. 💀

When Americans talk about their glorious Microcenter pilgrimages, British devs are over here scoring vintage CRTs and mechanical keyboards from some guy named Dave in a Tesco parking lot. Nothing says "I'm serious about my build" like haggling over RAM sticks next to a car that smells suspiciously of cigarettes and disappointment. The real UK developer experience is typing git commit on hardware that's seen three prime ministers come and go.

When your junior dev creates a pull request without running tests, fixing linting errors, or even reviewing their own code. Just smashes that green button and expects everyone else to clean up the mess. And the worst part? We've all been that dev at some point. Nothing says "not my problem anymore" like a hastily created PR with the commit message "fix stuff".
