  Roman Jakobchuk (Senior Software Engineer at RevJet)
  It may be unpleasant to hear, but most front-end vendors are far from programming. The problem is absolutely not new, it is known to everyone, but for some reason it does not get any better. The frameworks have replaced the need to understand the basic principles: patterns, algorithms, data structures ... Or does it only seem so? We will try to figure out what went wrong, and how quickly you can become a more valuable specialist.
