Yesterday I was asking a general question, about issues when building we apps. Few of us discussed challenges such as: unclear initial requirements, balancing functionality and UX, handling growing demands, security, and cross-browser compatibility. I'm really curious about frontend development specifically. What do you think is the biggest stuggle? Do you think there's any possibility of automating certain aspects of it?
