I haven’t experienced this much, as a frontend developer. Not in my own code from years ago and not in other’s code on projects I’ve inherited.

I’ve joined some teams where the code was horrific after rounds of patchwork by people who didn’t understand the system. But by and large, systems made by one person have been really easy for me to work in. Except for the various cases of overengineering by senior engineers or when junior engineers try to apply too many ‘cool’ frameworks that aren’t necessary.

Maybe it’s because most webapps solve simple problems in simple ways. There are collections and entities and relationships and almost everything is a page or a list or a form.
