How many Improvements needed for an Innovation?

The article argues that improvements alone don't create innovation—innovation emerges when multiple mature technologies compose into a new structure, as Ryan Dahl did combining V8 with other components to create Node.js. It proposes that modern web development suffers from a lack of composition, where projects are monolithically coupled to a single framework stack. The author envisions a compound meta-app architecture where separate concerns (admin, marketing, customer app) each use their own optimal framework and backend, unified by consistent routing, validation, and build patterns.
