@b0rk My first website that had some persistent state was done in Seaside in #Smalltalk. The framework was marketed as „heretic“, which immediately interested me. It had a very cool API to generate HTML, and my persistence was the Smalltalk image! It was truly amazing. It is still around: https://github.com/SeasideSt/Seaside
The hard part that frightened me most was not writing the software, but running a server.
