i've been fiddling with this site for 20 minutes and still don't understand it. https://webstatus.dev

it kinda feels like the result of a beginner-level developer trying to learn shoelace and Lit.

@hi_mayank I was gonna guess something made with Flutter, but I think they killed that

@mrtrimble you can immediately recognize a flutter site since it feels like a native android app with material components.

but this site doesn't feel like that (though i could have guessed it's built with Lit before opening devtools). it's so so bad i had to pinch myself to make sure it's real

@hi_mayank yeah, it is fun that this particular site, of all their sites, is this poorly developed.

@mrtrimble @hi_mayank I remember being surprised early in my career when I discovered that super smart back-end devs produced horrendous front-end code and with zero thought to basic design principles. Job titles might have changed but I'm still seeing the same thing now.
