[QUOTE="yogi, post: 1714719, member: 8542"] I think a better analogy would be the difference between learning to speak a language and using Google translate throughout. The latter will get your required result most of the time, and for straight forward scenarios, while the former would be required for more complex and custom constructions, and for adding nuance and fixing issues. In terms of serious web development, most skilled developers will have their HTML generated for them, but not with a WYSIWYG, but rather through scripts and command line tools that have been customized so the developers know excatly what's happening. For them it's about automating simple tasks, not abstracting the process (similar to a simple calculator, where you know what's going on mathematically, but yet chose to use the calculator for sake of speed).
