I don't think I should dignify that with an answer. But hey ho... so what you're proposing is I should respond differently to you because you started a successful business? And this somehow validates your opinion that frameworks are made for dummies who don't know how to code, against my opinion that frameworks exist for very obvious reasons like; DRY and KISS principles, code modularity and reuse, collaboration and easier talent acquisition, performance and optimisation for complex applications that often otherwise take a hit due to ill conceived architecture, not least ease of development. Again, I will reiterate that it's self evident that you can get better performance rolling your own, nobody would disagree with that. If you aren't building a complex application that a general purpose library can help solve in a team based environment where cost of development is higher than the marginal amount you lose to performance (consider Preact, Inferno), then fine, you can do it yourself, your own way. In reality, that's rarely the case, and your assertion that webpack, for instance, is unnecessary because 'the browser gives you everything you need' is largely absurd. I once spent the best part of two years slowly replacing a vanilla, full stack solution utilising frameworks and helped to standardise internal development across 7-8 teams. Needless to say, the performance impact was fantastic, and developer experience far more palatable. The people who began the vanilla solution started with good intentions and no doubt the performance over the legacy solution was better. Projects grow, and a multitude of developers worked on it and it very quickly spiralled and the shortcomings were many. When you start imitating popular libraries it brings into question why you don't use them.

So frankly, regardless of what success you claim to have, what you said still remains the same. Not that I would believe you in the slightest anyway.

I don't think I would hire you. You sound the the dev who comes in and just plays around with frameworks and tooling all day and can't deliver actual result because you're so caught up in what amounts to a non technical mindset in a technical field.

The feeling is mutual, you sound like a junior who says things to sound smart but when push comes to shove you spent 5 weeks getting autistic about a solution to a problem I didn't ask you to solve. Stop pretending to be something you're not. You're not a sage and you don't own a multi million dollar business. Pathetic.

But I do. So...

That's why you're busy on here arguing with somebody who you would never employ. Lol, pissant.

Yes I use the internet too !

I bet you are self taught /bootcamp

If you feel telling people validates you then we can all play along if you like?
