Ask Slashdot: Has the Time Passed For Coding Website from Scratch?

First time accepted submitter thomawack writes As a designer I always do webdesign from scratch and put them into CMSMS. Frameworks are too complicated to work into, their code is usually bloated and adaptable online solutions are/were limited in options. I know my way around html/css, but I am not a programmer. My problem is, always starting from scratch has become too expensive for most customers. I see more and more online adaptive solutions that seem to be more flexible, but I am a bit overwhelmed because there are so many solutions around. Is there something you can recommend?

HTML = programming

[globaljustin]

He's making sites from scratch without programming because HTML isn't programming

this is just not true

any time you use code to write computer instructions it is "programming"

he uses CMSMS, which means he only codes part of the site "by hand"

internet coding is not complex compared to coding a first-person-shooter, but the demands of the individual coder are different

i've seen many coders spend 10 minutes writing some executable code then spend an hour figuring out how to get it to go where they want in the HTML page on a website to look right
