Is JS dev really still so mercurial as it was 5 to 10 years ago? I'm not so sure. Back then, there would be a new topic daily about some new JS framework etc etc.
I still occasionally see a blip of activity but I can't say it's anything like what we witnessed in the past.
Though I will agree that gen AI trends feel reminiscent of that period of JS dev history.
If it is, it’s entirely self inflicted today. There’s some tentpole tech that is reliable enough to stick with and get things done. Has been for a while.
