Lightning Talk: Front-End is an Art
summary
Claims that front-end work belongs with artists and proves it by turning tooling and history into a comic song that mixes concrete details with bravado: mentions building with HTML CSS JS, Internet Explorer 6 bug fixes that required special hacks, reliance on Stack Overflow for solutions, the fading of jQuery and designers returning to Photoshop, and daily use of Chrome DevTools. The piece is a performance rather than a how‑to and aims to entertain and boost morale rather than teach reproducible techniques.
