**📌 Magic Spaghetti: How Today's Tasty Shortcuts Become Tomorrow's Technical Debt** with Alex Jewell

In recent JavaScript dev trends, we're witnessing a curious phenomenon: things once considered anti-patterns (or patterns we learned the hard way were bad) are being repackaged as innovative solutions. From "PHP in Vue components" to backend logic embedded in frontend code, these magical shortcuts promise to make development faster and easier—but at what cost? Join us for an eye-opening exploration of how the pendulum is swinging back toward convenience and speed at the expense of maintainability and long-term sustainability. Let’s chat about why developers ogle these "tasty" solutions, what legitimate problems they solve, and the hidden "indigestion" they may cause down the road. Don't get cooked by the latest trends—learn how to enjoy the benefits of modern trends without getting tangled in a plate of technical - shall I say it? - Regretti Spaghetti. Sorry for overworking the pasta theme, but come hungry!

**If you built a CMS with the goal of making your life easier, what would it look like?** Let’s start with headless architecture so you can work with any frontend and play nice with the rest of your stack. Then, throw in reusable components to save time when building.
