Well, Angular has a very heavy initialization penalty, enough that I know of a few companies that ditched it for React. I'll also add, as your front-end becomes more complex and uses a number of different libraries, the bundle becomes

Pretty badass. In addition to Turbolinks, there is also http://instantclick.io that has the benefit of prefetch which helps with perceived snappiness.

It is more maintainable (in the sense that functionality isn't bound to the DOM structure or class names). I'd argue there's a bit less repetition across your app, but it's not as significant if you're smart about c

I'd also add, moving to components doesn't rely on DOM structure either (ex. $(this).parent().parent().find(:el)...)

Front-end frameworks are going to give you a few things: more control over routing, more "app" like behavior, instant state changes (easily done), and most of all: your front end isn't going to be DOM driven. Lets say you&#x2

Well, it would probably be built into the insurance carriers' web stack. Dev teams need to keep up with the latest tech so they don't lose talent and can justify ever increasing salaries. So I think that's part of the reason

Regardless of hits, React is designed for UIs that need to "React". That's the motivation behind the library. It's better suited to social networking applications than it would be to say an eCommerce store or a dashboard

"(whose idea of a standard library is adding an underspecified `fetch` after 15 years of people writing wrappers around XMLHttpRequest)." So true.

Thank god for speaking up about this. This whole thread has me contemplating a career change. I'd rather dig a hole and fill it back in. The OP is pondering what framework to use for the front end. How about you do the design/css&

Is it really worth the trade-off? I remember eCommerce sites trying to do similar levels of interactivity with Flash too. I just think, for a catalog site, it seems like you're trying to swim upstream. Especially on mobile.

Based on previous work experience, like-ability, references, and a take home exercise.

Ha! I've had to do a few of those recently. Unfortunately, they were the ones where you write code as the hiring manager watches. Not a fan of those...

My understanding of full stack is frontend + backend web development. Sysadmin/devops is it's own discipline.

Probably except this one: A balance of technical, business, and social/emotional intelligence. More than likely someone with this sort of technical capacity doesn't score well in other areas.

Really? At what point does basic become deep?

I'm not sure you parsed the description correctly. They're not looking for someone with a mere grasp on these technologies. ========================================================= * Deep understanding of front-end JavaScript dev

I imagine it is a more senior role. While it's not uncommon somebody has "experience" in those items listed, it all comes down to what exactly that experience is. Dabbling in miscellaneous AWS services IMHO is a lot different

Encourage more personal photos. And ban links from Newsfeed. It's really that simple.

You need them to clarify deep understanding? If someone said they wanted a candidate to have a deep understanding of jet engines, I'd expect they know every single thing there is to know about them.

Except I don't think that's the case. The field is too wide for someone's attention to go deep in all of those areas. You might say, well give me a 10 yr runway. The problem is most of those technologies won't be the sam

What exactly is Full Stack these days?

Maybe a simple fix is to make the Federal Reserve aware of the problems they are creating.

This sounds an awful like a privatized social security system (that everyone knows would be abused...)

I'm convinced it's a matter of getting out there and building something . Building or offering something, that someone is willing to pay for, will make you a wage maker versus a wage taker. Tech Crunch, Inc. magazine, etc all kind of roman
