how to learn web development in 2018:

- watch youtube video of that new shiny promising framework

- spend hours trying to set up development environment

- spend another hours waiting for the dependencies to install

- spend the next few hours wondering and googling why it wont work even at fresh install

- spend another few hours redoing everything just to make sure you haven't missed a step

- realize that the youtube video you watched is uploaded last week, and now the framework developers mysteriously decided to change literally everything

- spend hours looking for another youtube video until you realize that now you are watching completely unrelated youtube video

- spend next hours wondering how your life become this pathetic while overthinking all of your past mistakes, and now you are just this lonely pathetic person with no clear future and that you will spend the rest of your life working at a fastfood chain below the minimum wage with no social life living on your parent's basement.

    My 2 cents...

    Research what would be the best tech stack for this project..

    Read the Docs

    npx install my dependencies..(seriously doesn’t take long)

    document throughout the project —> git workflow(rebase or whatever).

    Or....

    Make friends with a local DevOps and learn from them..

    That's why I don't do/like web. My C libraries are literally 30 years old and never changed or will change again

    @pokerface well then. Build a full blown spa without using external libraries while archiving the same performance as react / vue / angular..

    @sabbonaut sure. Thats very good advice and I suggest everyone does this. But in the end you wanna get shit done. (If it isnt your sideproject). And popular frameworks offer a better workflow than reinventing the wheel.
