I program as you say 'similar to writing music'.

This is because given all of the levels of various languages, frameworks, and libraries- I'm just trying to get things to work.

However, I would very much like the methodical engineering approach at my day job applied to programming.

It really blows my mind we don't have full stack + auth that works cross platform out-of-the-box. It blows my mind my recent framework didnt show the post request exchange to get tokens and authenticate.

There are NOT that many people that program at this level. It seems most of my programming questions are answered by asking experts rather than reading a wikipedia article. Electrical and Mechanical Engineering are better solved reading rather than asking engineers. IMO.
