What better motivation to start adopting a technology than the need to completely replace the alternative. From a world driven on limited resources like gas, coal, and oil to wind, hydro, nuclear, geothermal, and solar… we find ourselves, as a species, evolving past a first generation we envisioned as abundant, but turned sparse. Adopting IPv6 networking is another version of this same story.

In the modern web-app space, there’s been a trend going around that I like to describe as “getting back to basics”. It seems as though over the years, the tooling and complexity around building web-apps has gotten more and more complex. In that time, we’ve strayed further from browser primitives into highly abstracted and javascript-heavy solutions to solve problems our browsers solved back in the 90’s.
