Javascript is shit because it was never intended to be a serious language, but it’s (realistically) the only language in browsers so it’s everywhere. So there’s necessarily a LOT of tooling to make it suck less. The current generation of tooling is starting to get kinda good, like Bun, Deno, Vite, Biome etc, but it’s still a mess of competing standards, where other languages give you standards and simplicity for free.

Changes that big need to be broken down into smaller PR-sized steps. To do that you need an actual plan of how to get from here to there. Bro is swaggering like a senior then coding like a junior.
What to do? Well now you have evidence that AI tools are not yet good enough to write code that doesn’t need human review before deploying to prod. Chat with whoever is in charge of Process, and get some team guidelines in place to prevent unreviewed code going to prod, and unreviewable PR’s being submitted for review.
