We're gonna program like it's 1999

How joy and simplicity was brought back into our lives by the Facebook crew.

Personally

With React and its ecosystem — functional reactive programming, microservices, domain-driven design, data-driven applications — I've got back my mojo.

Now I write code as I've written twenty or thirty years ago.

Now I design and develop user interfaces and applications like a software engineer.

No more hacking, plumbing, massaging HTML, CSS, Javascript with Gulp, Grunt or Webpack — it's programming again.
