Yeah, in my experience, it's very hit or miss with frontend code architecture (I primarily work with React). And I am very particular about keeping code clean and maintainable, so that can be a challenge sometimes for sure. It's not bad for smaller one-off tasks, but I still do a majority of my larger tasks by hand because I typically already know what I need and how to do it correctly.
