Quite humorous -- thanks for sharing this. Can't wait for WebAssembly.

@hakimio,

And it's late 2016 at that. Just wait for the ball to drop, and all the shiny cool stuff will instantly turn into an ugly pumpkin!

Yep, the mighty jQuery has fallen ....

On a bit more serious note, I think Uncle Bob describes quite well what's happening in Javascript world (and some other dev communities) in his blog post called "The Churn".

I'm so glad I use Ext JS. I once used jQuery and my client code was a mess. I also used PHP on the server back then, too, and it wasn't pretty either.

I've been learning JS and overall coding with jQuery, PHP and mooTools recently and felt the same way. "No one codes in HTML directly."

Lucky us! ExtJS exists!
