This course is a deep, practical tour of the Web Platform: DOM APIs, Web Components, modern CSS, accessibility, forms, design systems, app architecture, tooling, and more.

Default Isn’t Design. Familiar feels true but often isn’t. I wrote about the psychology (System Justification) behind framework monoculture, the quiet costs it creates, and a standards-first path that still meets teams where they are. Reflex → Evidence → Contracts → Users.

I had an interview for a Distinguished Engineer role at a big company yesterday... It convinced me once again that most big companies don't know how to do quality, performance mature engineering.

I'm interested in building great things and helping others who are also interested in building great things. I'm not interested in average. I'm not interested in ok. Great.

This was my 3rd interview, and prior to this no one had explained what this team was doing, what their stack was, their architecture, etc. The 2nd interviewer was from a different team and didn't know. The 1st interviewer gave me a different description. (And no, this wasn't about Web Components.)

I had an interview for a Distinguished Engineer role at a big company yesterday... It convinced me once again that most big companies don't know how to do quality, performance mature engineering.

Well, I suppose it's no surprise at this point, but this group had picked the worst possible e2e architecture combination (100% perf/customer experience failure rate at every company I've seen it done at.)
