Terms to know
Glossary
- Opinionation
- A framework deciding for you. It is a benefit when the defaults suit you and a cost when they do not — which is why the answer depends on the product.
- Glue code
- The routing, build, data and deploy wiring a team writes when the framework does not supply it. Cheap to write once, expensive to maintain forever.
