I really don’t like these logos that are boxes with text in the lower right. The post cites a “common design language” with other tech but this has to be the most low effort language imaginable.

Yes, I've always thought they were excellent logos. Makes me nostalgic about the optimism of this time.

Also people actually use them, a while back every CS student inexplicably had these stickers on their laptop. I can't see these new logos being ever used as stickers because they're just... nothing.

As someone coming back to frontend after ten years... the optimism was justified! Writing UI code is amazing now.

Don't let the warts of the real implementation get you down, it's a delight how everything I want to do is just part of the vanilla stack now, one way or another.

Have you used MUI? Massive game-changer for me (as someone who knows CSS well).
