The decline of web development education

Original: The death of web development education

A widely discussed essay argues that web development education is dying, aspiring developers increasingly rely on frameworks, tutorials and AI tools without learning underlying fundamentals. The piece laments that structured teaching of HTML, CSS and JavaScript foundations is disappearing, leaving newcomers with fragmented knowledge. Readers are debating whether the criticism is justified and what it means for training the next generation of developers.

Why now: The essay sparked debate over whether modern tools and shortcuts are eroding foundational skills in web development.
