fair point, still no one is in the RAD market anymore.



I guess the RAD market vanished with Rails and its competitors.

Back in 1998 - suddenly - it was possible to develop quickly a web application with a CRUD web scaffold behind to start feeding data.

The problem we have now we is the need to maintain loads of dependencies and libraries nobody knows who's in charge its development: they're just "popular" and have some documentation.

That's the bad part.


the quick web development totally was bait and switch.


Totally aggre on that. But there will be a fix soon. Why? you cannot waste 2-3 days setting up your dev computer just to print hello (again) world.
