True - As a FE noob I am definitely not asking for the olden days. I do lament often CSS just does not feel intuitive for me and it could be just being used to iOS layouts or more old school layouts (think Swing, Android etc). What made it worse for me was the 18 generations of css philosophies (use classes, use css files, inline, dont inline, and repeat). I wasnt sure if Nue was promising this - but if I can go to one way of doing CSS that lasts more than 2-3 years Id be happy :). Same with frameworks. I can pickup iOS development after not having done it for almost 10 years. I just dont have this confidence with webdev. Heck I moved out of Nextjs to htmx (though I liked the ergonomics in the former and this is not an endorsement of htmx) was because an app I had left in maintenance mode for 6 months started breaking builds out of no where when I had to add a small feature.
