Ruby on Rails was probably the peak of the hype wave. It had a tutorial that any manager could follow to build a simple data driven website in minutes.
Is that a "framework"? Anyhow it was first released a year after you claimed this all happened.
Ruby was the really hot one.
.Net accomplished very similar outcomes and caused a lesser version of the same hyperbole, a few years earlier.
Yes, both are called frameworks.
Of course, I'm going from an old person's memory, so who knows or cares? You can learn from my experiences, or not.
If you check my post history, you'll see plenty of evidence that I am, as claimed, a cranky old software developer.
