Web developer here thinking about developing a game with HTML5, any thoughts?
I myself am currently using LittleJS, and it's just amazing for me, as it sorts out the core engine & rendering logic, but I can easily reuse and plug in any sort of other libraries/old scripts from other games at need: https://github.com/KilledByAPixel/LittleJS

My thought on different engines
For full web games (yeah, I come from the web, so I try to make my family proud), I will recommend PixiJS. It has great support for TypeScript and works very well with Vite. It's lighter than other game engines, so it's better for web games. But you will need to do a lot of things by yourself.
