Agreed, plus... :)

Frontend & backend are both software and they are both apps, but they are two very different beasts, and should be judged and optimised differently:

  1. Validation, indeed 👍
  2. Strict type definitions and safety, for which reason I think typescript is much overhyped and taken far too religiously. It's just a tool, i use parts of it.
