Lessons learned from implementing a text editor related to front-end development
The more I read, the more I felt that the author was long-windedly discovering FSM's, only describing them using the language de-jour - i.e. JavaScript-ecosystem-ism's.Is this the state of things today - that kids start off as highfalutin' "developers", whereby 95% of their apps are written by others (because: "npm -i "), and then .. eventually, from the top-down, trickle through the stack learning "the things", giving it all a new fancy name, and blogging about it?  Because to me, this seems more like devolution at work in the computer science industries, not some kind of radically derived insight.I'm not trying to be overly critical, but for a lot of us, "discovering that C-based apps are, weirdly, similar to what us React-ites are doing" sure seems like a step backwards from real stack competency.
