One company found that too much JavaScript costs them $700,000 per year, per kilobyte. Here's what Alex Russell says needs to change.

The article mentions that the new Javascript frameworks cater more to developers. As if developers have to use the garbage sites that they are developing, this article is very confused and written in a very bad way. Also, I would love to see a source to that clickbaity title other than “some guy said something”. I also find this sentence hilarious as a developer. Russell contended we’ve over-prioritized developer experience and the end user experience suffers as a result. This is clearly from somebody who doesnt understand the concept of javascript framework fatigue

I would assume that the problem with slow websites is unexpierenced developers combined with CEOs that don’t understand what their website is doing and analytics and ads and stuff.
