As an older developer (46), I stay away from the clusterf%%% of modern front end development.

In the last three or four years, I’ve been going back and forth between C# (.Net Core) using Visual Studio and Javascript (Node), Python, and Go using VS Code. The setup was. 1. Download VS/VS Code 2. Install appropriate extensions .

It makes no sense to me to try to stay up to date with front end development when front end developers are rapidly becoming a commodity with a bunch of boot camp grads. The money isn’t worth it.
