Navigating the Frontend Landscape Without Succumbing to JS Fatigue
summary
Evolution Gaming's frontend journey: they migrated from vanilla JS to Backbone and then React, built a large Gulp pipeline, and adopted TypeScript and CSS Modules to cut runtime errors and style leakage for slow-device live casino clients. Their repo strategy switched from multiple repos with Lerna links back to a monorepo with direct local links to untangle dependencies and measurably improve developer velocity.
