<p>After stuffing Pocket with a bunch of articles, I&#39;ve finally gotten around to going through them.</p>

<p><a href="https://blog.jim-nielsen.com/2022/website-fidelity/">Website Fidelity</a> <em>(Jim Nielsen)</em></p>
<p>I&#39;ve tossed around the idea of figuring out a good way to deliver my blog in different modes as I have appreciated NPR and CNN&#39;s very basic sites. It&#39;s an interesting idea and challenge to provide better experiences for different users and their needs and/or abilities.</p>
<p><a href="https://michaelscodingspot.com/node-js-vs-dotnet/">8 reasons startups prefer Node.js over .NET, and are they justified?</a> - <em>(Michael Shpilt)</em></p>
<p>Ever since moving over to the new .NET from the .NET Framework, I&#39;ve realized it can be faster than ever to get up and running. .NET has <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-new-sdk-templates">good templates</a> to get you started. There are also now the <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/minimal-apis?view=aspnetcore-6.0">minimal APIs</a> that can make things super simple.</p>
<p>At the end of the day though, I feel this is kind of a personal taste thing with no &quot;right&quot; answer. Both Node.js and .NET are fantastic platforms to get up and running with so companies and developers should really go with whichever they&#39;re more comfortable with. Good code can be written for either.</p>
<p><a href="https://frontendmastery.com/posts/the-new-wave-of-javascript-web-frameworks/">The new wave of Javascript web frameworks</a> <em>(Frontend Mastery)</em></p>
<p>I remember building my first true interactive web app using PHP close to 15 years ago. Since then, the entire ecosystem has changed. Hell Chrome wasn&#39;t even a thing back then. It&#39;s remarkable to see the new frameworks and technologies continuing to evolve and improve. I&#39;m pretty entrenched in React &amp; TypeScript right now, but who knows what will happen over the next 5-10 years.</p>
