What CRUD app companies pay top tier salaries currently? They all pay much less than GAFAM from what I have read.
Most engineers at GAFAM (or whatever the trendy acronym is) are doing CRUD work.
I prefer FMAGA.. because of the ambiguity.
The rules and regulations are changing. More big companies need people to make more ADA compliant and GDPR compliant CRUD apps now, all these web apps will either be maintained or die, and another take it's place.
So until some major patterns are agreed upon by software vendors/browsers/frameworks or whatever, I don't think it will change much.
