Project mention: Plain Vanilla Web – Guide for de-frameworking yourself | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-05-11You and a few others are missing the point, which means I probably failed to communicate super effectively. Counterexamples aren't really a thing here because my point isn't that you do or don't need a framework for any specific kind of project, my point is that requirements vary and you can't talk framework vs frameworkless without talking requirements.
A blog is just one example of a place where frameworks don't help, chosen because the site OP shared is functionally the same as a blog. Other applications have different requirements and those requirements may also not benefit from a framework. Alternatively, the requirements themselves may actually have benefited from a framework and the authors chose to avoid them because the team preferred not to or because they felt strongly about avoiding frameworks because of personal preference.
In this case, this project has really one active contributor [0], so it's missing one of the key ingredients that in my experience really call for a framework: coordination between a large number of people.
(And lest I be mistaken: just because a project has a large number of people does not mean a framework would for sure be the best choice. I'm sure there are counterexamples to that too! It's just a hint in that direction, not an ironclad law.)
