SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
This basic Spring CRUD app, with no auth has 8 different dependencies. We use libraries when programming, this nothing unique to javascript. Libraries are useful.
The tutorial taught you a basic CRUD app and you could do that in far less time in Laravel? Well yeah, the tutorial teaches you the nitty gritty innards, because it's a low level tutorial, if you want a proper framework equivalent to Laravel use KeystoneJS. And even if the ecosystem is not mature enough yet that doesn't mean it's a fad and not viable, it just needs more time, PHP has existed a lot lot longer than Node.
