HTML First – Six principles for building simple, maintainable, web software
I published this article on Template Animation (aka DOM Templating) 12 years ago:
https://benkoworks.com/your-templating-engine-sucks-and-ever...
It fits nicely with this goal. My colleagues and I created a tool that allows HTML developers to work in HTML by compiling HTML using a Chrome extension, and then allowing developers to compile the same in their code platform of choice and operate on the DOM:
https://github.com/iaindooley/Fragmentify
https://github.com/iaindooley/fragmentify-js
Even if you're doing a SPA you can use this same method, by sending updates over the wire and doing the processing on the server. We created a standalone package that facilitated that by loading the initial page from the server then transparently allowing the server to send just the changes to the page and having them applied on the client side:

The combination of "remote" and "fragmentify" and Template Animation/DOM Templating, in my opinion, would be a tremendous "retreat to move forward" in web development technologies.

We're breaking up with JavaScript front ends
Many years ago a colleague and I wrote a stand-alone version of a package for my own arcane php framework called Remote.
The idea was that you write in Web 1.0 and immediately get a Web 2.0 front end because it just updates what it needs to.
I still think this is the holy grail of frontends:

alternatives to the javascript ecosystem
That said, there are ways to embrace the JS ecosystem without actually using JavaScript. Many popular languages have transpilers that will convert code written in that particular language into something that will run natively in a web browser (in other words, JavaScript). Even TypeScript is a language that gets transpiled into JavaScript, so it's not that outrageous of a concept, it just gets more difficult to do the further you get away from languages that don't already look like JavaScript.

Vanilla+PostCSS as an Alternative to SCSS
As a front-end web developer, do you still use CoffeeScript or jQuery? Unlikely, as TypeScript, ES/TC39 and Babel (and the retirement of Internet Explorer thanks to @codepo8 and his EDGE team) have helped to transform JavaScript into some kind of a modern programming language.

Why React isn't dying
On the other hand, companies choose React because that's where all the developers are. If you want to build something that can be maintained years from now, you better not choose the next hype train that goes straight to nowhere (remember CoffeeScript ?). You want something battle tested that has stood the test of time, where you won't have trouble finding developers to scale once you need to. And nobody ever got fired for choosing React.
