How About Tomorrow?

Adam Questions Nice App Design, JavaScript Dictators, and Jiu-jitsu

Listen Later

Adam has questions this episode: Why does Tailwind bring out the worst in people? Why don't more people just make nice fast apps like Linear? Why is Notion slow? Is sites vs apps a real debate? Is the developer experience getting better? And should Adam help Dax become the Benevolent Dictator of JavaScript that he was born to be?
