The first time I coded in something called a "framework" was a really long time ago in CakePHP, a framework that apparently still exists to this day and taught me a lot about working within the constraints of a library to achieve what you want, and about the limitations of such an approach. This was in my teenage years, before I even started university, so I didn't really last long with it or even with PHP, and soon started to dabble in other languages. For a while I didn't really do any web programming, and when I started doing that again, it was Node.js that grabbed my attention.

And I say again because this might be the fourth or fifth time I attempt to have a technical blog of any kind.
