This reminds me. I got a search engine to build.

I'm an elitist asshole and I hate that people say "react dev" when really it's "web dev that uses react"

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is this distinction really all that useful?

I suppose you could write a react app that doesn’t use “the web”? But you still might just say they are a react developer.

I think the web part refers to web technologies.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah I guess I’m old. Seems like everything is called “web dev” these days.

I was answering a question somewhere related to something like C/C++ and Operating System level stuff. Someone replied asking where I learned “web dev.” I would consider that general programming, or possibly systems programming, but certainly not “web dev.”

There are also react devs creating the windows 11 start menu.

Honestly "C + SDL + Lua" is basically the best, most sane"full stack" I have ever used.

IMO it allows for the perfect level of abstraction.

I'm still waiting for the day we get a proper alternative to JavaScript.

If I had to make one, it would have a Bash-like syntax
