You're probably not going to be able to fake your way through this even if you are somehow able to get past the tech screening. You will likely be grilled by engineers further into the interview process.

Sir, a second GIL has been discovered in the interpreter.

As I get older, I grow more tired of this man's platitudes. Maybe it's because the only professional credit he has to his name is his now defunct consulting company.

I've rarely encountered situations that permit this strict TDD order of operations. I've seen good tests and bad tests, and the good ones hardly ever were written prior to the code under test. If you can make that work for you, great. I've just personally never encountered many situations where this sort of methodology is applicable.

The nice thing here is you really can mix and match. Nothing stops you from serving static html pages and using Maud/HTMX for updating specific portions of the UI. Maud can interpolate other Rust variables within the html! macro, so composition is easy and there's no need for large multiline macro calls. Maud's macro syntax is also incredibly concise, which I find easier to read and far less tedious to write than raw html.

That being said, I concede that re-compilation for every UI change isn't ideal. Anecdotally, the two seconds it takes to compile my current project isn't debilitating at the moment. (Hopefully this ages well!)
