All I'm asking for is a more modern and simpler process that is a STANDARD ...
Maybe it is because I come from compiled language background ...
Well I am sorry, but web development is a complete different kettle of fish. We download all the parts that make up an application asynchronously, on a wide variety of devices, with different specs and rendering capabilities - all things which the app, once downloaded, need to adapt to. We have progressive rendering and respond to all sort of sensors. All while ensuring boot up time for the app is in the microseconds range and security for both you who download the code and the server.
Your expectations are simply unrealistic, sorry.
Also, we always had polyfills, even "back in the day". Except that back then everyone had to bake their own. In fact, we had browser wars and appalling browser (IE5 for the Mac, anyone??!?) and it was a real pain in the neck.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
