summary
The talk examines how current web development education (bootcamps, schools, e-learning) fails beginners—especially given the prevalence of SPA and API-first architectures—and argues that many teaching approaches are inadequate or harmful. It critiques common solutions, proposes potential alternatives, and highlights examples of organizations whose teaching methodologies better address the developer shortage.
