Discussion on: Oops, I'm Making A Framework

My rule of thumb is to look at frameworks for the second go at a problem, after I've explored it myself. I can't choose a framework to solve a problem for me if I don't fully understand the shape of the problem I'm solving, but once I do, they really can save time if you pick the right one.

Lots of "if"s, though.

That's a good rule of thumb, I like it! Lol it is a lot of "if"s but I'm sure you, like me, would rather be self-sufficient and really learn along the way.
