i am a backend engineer with strong opinions on how frontend should look like (i used to be a graphical designer for ~6 years before starting my career as a software engineer),
i can make wonderful interfaces with jQuery, and great back-office applications that dont require the end user to have 32 gb of RAM to run it
You might be able to, but my predecessors definitely couldn't. They wrote an in house QA site for our production team to track testing devices, it got to the point where loading the page to search for devices took over two minutes and the database had over 60 columns. I took a couple weeks for me to vibe code it into react and now it has two columns and loads the search page in ~2-5 seconds.
