started to work on this cool project, cool client, all fullstack developers on it, only me is just FE on the project (I am also architect, devops, backend, db admin, even designer sometimes etc. on other projects, but they wanted someone who will focus on FE and now i see why, to shovel the shit fullstacks made).
we have issues so i take a look and find ton of cases where people were just reinventing the wheel, like calculating image sizes and place them in the middle without bleeds on any side, absolutely positioned and then centered etc.
so i deleted this 500-ish lines of utility functions and just used object-fit:cover and object-position: center instead. I mean WT actual F!
so dear fullstack developers, if you don't want to learn the CSS then you are just backend developers who knows jack shit on the frontend. F you very much!!!
also F you for reinventing the wheel with this JS monster instead using 2 CSS declarations instead!
