!rant: first time building an application on a framework. The view is amazing from up here on these giant's shoulders. Thanks to all of those brilliant people making my life easier.

Spot on. My desktop wallpaper used to say: "You stand upon the shoulders of giants"

I realized it every day since I started coding. Everything we do as developers is built upon the work of smart, hard working people who came before us.

If we're smart and hard working enough, others will build on our work.

I love that concept.

Yup! Instead of complaining, let's be grateful.
