Yeah, 20 years ago when I started building websites I was still in my CS major. We didn't have these huge layers of libraries and frameworks. I wonder how much I would know now if I didn't have to just build everything myself. We would make all kinds of things and we did it all from scratch - upload files, log in, save stuff in databases using actual sql, entire ecommerce experiences, I would write the whole "front end" and "back end" by hand. And everything was really fast.
