I’ve noticed many questions on here from new programmers that can be solved using libraries. When a library is suggested, often times they respond “I don’t want to use X library” Is it the learning curve? or ? Just curious!
A lot of new programmers are still working at a very low level of abstraction, learning the trade. That’s something everyone has to go through. It takes a while to “move up the stack” so to speak.
Once programmers realise that they spend most of the time solving the same problems as someone else already did, and the goal is to realise “business value”, then they can really appreciate the value a good library brings.
