Overall, there is a consensus that frameworks are not necessary in all situations. They discuss the downsides of using frameworks, such as being restricted by the framework when doing edge development and the time required for learning a framework. They talk about the value of frameworks for learning patterns in programming. </strong></div><div><strong>The panel delves into the pros and cons of different frameworks available. Joe shares a story about teaching someone first without a framework and then introducing them to frameworks, and the way it helped with their learning. One of the pros of frameworks is that they are better documented than manual coding. They all agree that it is not enough to just know a framework, you must continue to learn JavaScript as well. </strong></div><div><strong>They talk about the necessity for new programmers to learn a framework to get a job, and the consensus is that a knowledge of vanilla JavaScript and a general knowledge of the framework for the job is important. New programmers are advised to not be crippled by the fear of not knowing enough and to have an attitude of continual learning. In the technology industry, it is easy to get overwhelmed by all the developments and feel that one cannot possibly learn it all. Charles gives advice on how to find your place in the development world. The show concludes with the panel agreeing that frameworks are overall a good thing and are valuable tools. </strong></div><div><strong>Links</strong></div><ul> <li><a href="https://jwt.io/"><strong>JWT</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://angular.io/"><strong>Angular</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://vuejs.org/"><strong>Vue</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://backbonejs.org/"><strong>Backbone</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://golang.org/"><strong>GoLang</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://expressjs.com/"><strong>Express</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://reactjs.org/"><strong>React</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://redux.js.org/"><strong>Redux</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/WebReflection/hyperHTML"><strong>Hyper HTML</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://4each.cz/"><strong>4each</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(programming_language)"><strong>Pascal</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://jquery.com/"><strong>JQuery</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.npmjs.com/"><strong>Npm.js</strong></a></li> </ul><div> <strong>Follow DevChat on </strong><a href="https://www.facebook.com/DevChattv/?__tn__=%2Cd%2CP-R&eid=ARDBDrBnK71PDmx_8gE_IeIEo5SnM7cyzylVBjAwfaOo1ck_6q3GXuRBfaUQZaWVvFGyEVjrhDwnS_tV"><strong>Facebook</strong></a><strong> and </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/devchattv?lang=en"><strong>Twitter</strong></a> </div><div><strong>Picks</strong></div><div><strong>Charles Max Wood:</strong></div><ul><li><a href="https://podwrench.com/"><strong>Podwrench</strong></a></li></ul><div><strong>Aimee Knight:</strong></div><ul> <li><a href="https://qz.com/work/1571065/how-to-love-your-job-and-avoid-burnout/"><strong>How to Love Your Job and Avoid Burnout</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Good-They-Cant-I...
