Live parody concert rewrites Beatles/Bon Jovi lyrics into concrete claims about JavaScript, frameworks and enterprise pain, naming dozens of real frameworks and showing why the list is absurd. Performs via multi-camera live stream, uses a React guitar component on-screen, builds a USB footswitch with a Raspberry Pi Zero footswitch running Python to send keyboard events to OBS, experiments with isolated green‑screen band tracks, and admits minor live hiccups (dropped picks) while the setup largely works.
