Goal
When listening to Guergana Tzatchkova's recent onboarding experience with Wikimedia UI libraries at WMDE, it became clear that there's a gap in our current documentation:
Her shared question was: “Even why are we using some things?”
That made me think, that all this knowledge about how UI libs came together is work experience, chit-chat or hearsay.
We should present a short section on Codex mw.org article about history of UI libs at Wikimedia!
I think that would make a lot of sense for new devs to have such section for quicker context. Similar to the history section in Vue.js…
