Things are going fast in front-end, when I think my back about my 10 years careers, I would say the 6 first years were pretty calm, we had jquery & plugins, and were living a small life. But last 4 years went really fast, always getting better and better tools to do, really, anything you want in javascript, you’re not bound only to the web anymore.

Still tools you picked up along the way you still can use them today. I’m a backbone/grunt guy, I did not get into any other framework bandwagon and until now my tools served me well.

The way I see it that’s all about to change, with ES6, ES7 and Babel, the language is about to be transformed drastically. With frameworks like Angular2, Aurora & React taking advantages from the new language features and new front-end programming paradigm to better handle UI states, I feel that yet again we are leaving another era and the community will shift to new high.

Can you feel it? There’s something in the air and that’s not necessarily a bad thing, to the next 5 years!
