im sorry for how bad this looks. yes this is actually what most of my code looks like, yes the minified parts were like that by hand, yes this is painful to look at to a point where i think this is the best place for it. yes, it actually works, at least. also yes there really are 0 comments as to wtf this shit is.

(i mean, theres no rule banning code you wrote yourself...only ai generated, but this was made by hand)

 css

    
@font-face{

A story from my day job. I submitted it to the Daily WTF. Fingers crossed that they'll accept it.

In order to facilitate development of frontend apps that rely on my employer's antediluvian monolith codebase, a team of developers at the company came up with a backend for frontend (BFF) service that would allow developers on other teams (such as mine) to quickly make frontends that use the monolith's logic and data. The service uses a schema-driven UI approach, where developers make forms by specifying the input elements (along with some related layout and validation logic, also schema-driven) using JSON schemas. This also includes specifying classes on the element for styling purposes. Who wants hot reloading when tweaking styles for a frontend app when you can instead make a JSON schema in a separate DotNET codebase that needs to be compiled (this is sarcasm)? As gross as that aspect is though, it is not today's WTF.

Right after lunchtime today, I saw a post
