A refreshing read. Was expecting a satirical negative take on the complexity.

However, this only covers a small part of front-end development with VDOM based approach, and a few ES6 constructs (destructuring, arrow functions, let-const).

The author misses out on mobile development, Node JS and NPM modules, server side, and Electron-based desktop apps.

It's a good thing to take the positive approach, and get introduced to some interesting, low-barrier-to-entry items. At the same time, it would be prudent to keep in mind what lies ahead.
