[AskJS] Frameworks are often unnecessary (i got the suspicion by watching some YouTube videos that who advocates for frameworks and against vanilla JavaScript at the same time did not learn vanilla web technologies very well) what do you think? (Read the body)

  • Gatsby

    The best React-based framework with performance, scalability and security built in.

    • I'm not sure I agree that it's "madness" to choose React for an MPA. At least not anymore: Next.js, Remix, and Qwik are full frameworks built on React (el al.) that make MPA and SPA apps deliverable using SSR and SSG. You can also just use Gatsby if you want a plain old blog.

  • qwik

    Instant-loading web apps, without effort

  • Svelte

    Cybernetically enhanced web apps

    • You might enjoy Svelte, which is technically a compiler, rather than a framework- it compiles down to raw JS, with no vdom and quite minimal but sensible additional syntax- it's a superset of html, much like how TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript.
