The death of web development education

A German web developer's essay argues that web development education is dying. The piece contends that beginners learning HTML, CSS and JavaScript now face fragmented, commercially driven resources rather than coherent teaching, and that the shared foundations that once trained a generation of developers are eroding. Readers are debating whether the essay accurately describes how people learn to build for the web today, with some agreeing the landscape has deteriorated and others pointing to new, different paths into the profession.

Why now: A prominent discussion on Hacker News about a provocative essay claiming web development education has collapsed.
