You see the world in HTML DOM elements. You love diving into the latest and greatest CSS frameworks. When you’ve written a particularly elegant piece of Javascript, it feels like all is right in the world. You shudder at the thought of websites before responsive design. If someone shows you an API, you instantly see a powerful user interface taking shape. You understand the stack of the web; getting your hands dirty with LAMP isn’t a show stopper to launching a product. You gave up Dreamweaver in 1997 because nothing ever looked as good as your bare code.
