New comment by Eridrus in "Updating an “Intro to Web Design” Course"

What's the goal of the course?

A lot of the changes I've seen (from a distance) in the last few years are about how to better scale front-end development, which isn't really necessary for people who don't plan to be developers.

Serverless is interesting in that it lets you get a real application running with less ops knowledge, but are the people taking this course interested in making applications, or do they want the skills to make some changes to a wordpress blog? The combination with single page applications can remove the need to learn a server-side templating system, but with the downside that you need to know more JS than a simple PHP page.

One thing that HN doesn't talk about, but could be useful for non-technical folks is low-code frameworks for building typical business apps.
