I'm trying to decrease cognitive load in development.
Every single thing I need to learn takes time and introduces complexity.
I try to the greatest extent possible to program the underlying technology. This does not mean I don't use frameworks/libraries - I use lots of them - but I always try to decide if I'm better to learn the underlying tech than the framework/library - if the library is a better way to go then I use it. I'm just very pragmatic about whether or not I need to use that framework/library cause I cannot afford to expend time on learning new stuff if I can afford to.
Full stack development means building everything from the OS to the cloud to the database, the back end web server and front end. I already pay a huge cognitive price to know all that and task switching between parts of such systems incurs further brain cost.
I already know ReactJS very well but I'm just thinking maybe I can reduce the cognitive load further by not using it.
