Do one thing and do it well

I prefer to keep the number of technologies to the least. This made sense considering the fact am the only person building it. I didn’t want to add a front-end framework, instead used jQuery. But using it for rendering views made the code too cumbersome.

I experimented Stimulus in a few places. Later I moved the existing jQuery code to Stimulus using Boy Scout Rule. I didn’t have to change anything in the application because I introduced Stimulus. It didn’t take my front-end.

Stimulus did one thing well — add behaviour to your Javascript through its controllers. And it also gels well with any other library or framework too because of being modest.

And it is not much different for products too. Most of the successful products religiously apply this principle. Here are a few articles which are relevant to this, both for the product and the code.
