From HTML to here: The evolution of Web development and where we lost our way

Let’s go together on the fascinating journey of web development. From its humble beginnings with basic HTML to the sophisticated, complex ecosystems we see today. We’ll trace the milestones that brought us the dynamic, interactive web, touching on key innovations like CSS, JavaScript, and frameworks like React. However, along the way, we’ll reflect on the critical moments where things may have taken a wrong turn—whether it's about overcomplicated tools, bloated websites that sacrifice speed and accessibility, or the overwhelming choice of frameworks that can paralyse development. The goal is to examine how we got here, what can be improved, and how we can simplify and refocus web development for a more efficient, user-centred future.

Hi! I am Gosia, but some people know me as a mom, a daughter, some as friend, others coworker, but for some, I am just “ey, you!”. A few years back I graduated from Automatic Control and Robotics, and soon after starting my job in that field, I knew... it's not for me. So I started looking for something new. Then.. it hit me how cool was programming during my studies, so HERE I AM!
For quite a few years now I have been working as a full-stack developer with .NET and React (and knockout, Angular JavaScript..). However, recently I have been feeling a growing passion and interest in DevOps too. I am only beginning my DevOps journey, but I am facing some exciting challenges. At the times when I am not coding, you will probably find me either playing with our little one, in my cave painting or trying to play piano.
