    Guys I can’t do front-end! There was a time I was getting kinda good but now there’s too much CSS tricks to learn.

    I’m currently making an app for the fediverse and my back-end is amazing but I need help even beginning to make something decent for the front-end!

    This is a streaming app, and just developed the chat widget which looks good in OBS, that’s a start.

    But the player? Responsible layout? Aaaah it seems impossible.

      It’d help if the JavaScript ecosystem could pause on inventing new frameworks every five minutes and instead focus on fixing their tooling problems.

        I don’t know the developer experience with React+Vite has been amazing for me!

        Fast HMR, detailed stack traces, and typing support is so cool!

      I’d suggest finding some examples or templates that are reasonably close to what you want, and working from there. It’s much easier to adapt something existing with small tweaks than building it all yourself.

      If you have any concrete questions, feel free to shoot me a DM :)
