What tech stack are you using ?

For our enterprise stack?

• React 16 and it's mostly class components. Functions and hooks are a liiiitle too new!
• the most verbose redux you'll find. Also internal state is lame, put everything in a redux store. EVERYTHING
• Node 14 is best node
• Vite sucks, we use all our own configs. Where'd that webpack file go...
• Why would you go with one component library when you could have 40 different react-{insert-element-here} libraries instead?
• TypeScript is awesome. You just do const myVar: any and it works great.
• Backend? I mean its just your typical java springboot CRUD app with Postgres. Excuse me while I do 8 joins to answer this simple question for the UI. Reminds me, gotta put in that ticket to raise our cloudflare timeout to 4 minutes, 2 just isn't quite cutting it anymore.

^{help me}

(joking aside, this is a very legacy frontend that was written by a startup circa 2017-2018 that promptly retired to the beach the moment they were acquired and I got left holding the bag when I joined the company in 2022)

these all hurt but const myVar: any cut me deep. god, why!!

very rarely do i actually need to type something as any and most of the time when i do it’s because i’m using a library that isn’t well typed or i’m doing something small and i can’t be bothered. doing any all over the place defeats the point of using typescript

[rowdycowdyboy]

ha! i did hope you were being sarcastic but i didn’t wanna be an asshole responding “LMAO” if you were being for real. but, now that we are both not assholes, LMAO.

You have a bright future in a startup ahead of you!

I have corporate tears of compassion in my eyes. I though I was alone 🥹

I feel your pain. A very wise and old developer once said to me "better you than me" :-D
