What's going to replace HTML & CSS & JS?
- by Nigel Thorne
HTML and CSS are showing their age.
SASS generates CSS (because CSS isn't clean enough). Graphic Designers don't work in HTML, they work in graphics tools then have to translate it to HTML/CSS. JavaScript has to have abstractions like jQuery, and CSS has a bunch of hacks to even start approaching consistent predictable user experience.
It feels like people are doing some wonderful things despite the technologies, not because of them.
Surely there is a better way?!? Something more closely aligned with the task at hand.. of providing a fluid intuitive (consistent) user experience to let users achieve their goals.
Thoughts?
