@sebastienlorber It's funny how things loop around. Some of the earliest JS server side stuff in the 90s was also a lot of fun (but you had to give Netscape money to use it).
@sebastienlorber We almost had layout constraints too, but instead we now have 20 competing layout algorithms 😭 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassowary…
@sebastienlorber imagine if we lived in a world where if you had js disabled/blocked/errored you'd be looking at an old school unstyled html page
@sebastienlorber Wait until you find out about server-side JavaScript. No, not Node. Netscape.
