Honestly "C + SDL + Lua" is basically the best, most sane"full stack" I have ever used.

IMO it allows for the perfect level of abstraction.

I'm an elitist asshole and I hate that people say "react dev" when really it's "web dev that uses react"

Is this distinction really all that useful?

I suppose you could write a react app that doesn’t use “the web”? But you still might just say they are a react developer.

I think the web part refers to web technologies.

I'm still waiting for the day we get a proper alternative to JavaScript.
