    Not sure what web framework “made you obsolete” in 2003. I don’t even think jQuery existed then let alone anything you could accurately call a framework

    Edit: just looked it up, first jQuery release was 2006 so I’m not sure what you’re smoking but I want some

      People genuinely thought ColdFusion would allow untrained businessmen to make complex websites with no coding, only markup. It could generously be described as a “web framework”, and it was released in 1995.

      Wow. I forget that there are babies on the Internet, now.

      There were back-end web frameworks as early as the 1990s. The Internet started long before JavaScript existed.

      God I feel old, now. Fuck. Lol.

        Yeah, I didn’t do backend stuff for a while so maybe I somehow missed those being called frameworks. Sounds like they were though. And it’s nice of you to say I’m young lol

          Oh sure. And yeah, the term tends to be used for front end now.

          And it’s nice of you to say I’m young lol

          Lol. You’re welcome!
