I have a basic crud application plus SPA with export functionalities in flask and it's almost stupid how many files you have to modify to add a single field editable by the user: the migration that modifies the db (auto-generated by the changes in the model but still...), the model itself, the server side validation forms, the server side tests, the REST API sending data to the frontend so that the user can store info in the new field, the frontend code receiving the data, the UI, the frontend tests and the export API needs to know about the new field.
The app has so little logic that I feel it's not worth refactoring to abstract a lot of this stuff but everytime the client wants a new field I have to go through the same scattered modifications.
