⚔️ Do We Need Another JavaScript Framework?

Spoiler: Of course we do! Otherwise how will developers stay confused?

“The best way to solve a problem is to create a JavaScript framework that 10 other people have to fix later.”

— Ancient Frontend Proverb

Let’s be honest: every month there's a hot new JavaScript framework that claims to be lighter, faster, cleaner, sexier, and more 'declarative' than the one you just spent 6 months learning.

🌪️ Introducing: overkill.js

A revolutionary, reactive, recursive, regressive runtime for redundant rendering.

npm install overkill

• Bundle size: 482MB (minified)
• Purpose: To replace every other framework you never asked to replace
• Main feature: Renders components using quantum uncertainty (sometimes it works, sometimes it renders your horoscope)
• Syntax:

  import { QuantumDiv, useEntangleState } from "overkill"

  const App = () => {
    const [vibe, setVibe] = useEntangleState("confused")

    return <QuantumDiv spin={true}>{vibe}</QuantumDiv>
  }

“I tried to build a to-do list in overkill.js and accidentally summoned a crypto miner.”

🤔 But Do We Really Need Another Framework?

✅ YES! Because:

• We haven't confused the juniors enough.
• We want to be the first hit on Hacker News for 4 hours.
• We need to justify not learning CSS again.
• Why maintain when you can reinvent?

“Rewriting everything in your own framework is a rite of passage.”

❌ NO! Because:

• React exists. And now it’s basically the standard, whether you like it or not.
• Framework fatigue is real. (You can literally smell the burnout through the Wi-Fi.)
• Every framework promises performance until you open DevTools and the FPS drops to 9.

“My app used to load in 1 second. Then I added a modern framework and now it renders in 3... assuming the backend doesn’t crash.”

🤡 Some Recent Framework Names That Might Be Real:

• vaporwave.js — UI transitions powered by synthwave music 🎹
• recoil-redux-query-zustand — For when you need state-of-the-art state management… in 9 places at once
• rawdog.js — No abstractions. Just pain.
• overkill.js — You heard it here first.

💡 How to Make Your Own Framework in 3 Steps

1. Fork React.
2. Rename everything to sound cooler.
3. Post a Medium article: “Why I Created Yet Another Framework in 2025 (and Why You Should Too)”

“JavaScript frameworks are like boybands. Every few years, a new one shows up, breaks some hearts, and fades into legacy code.”

🧘‍♂️ Final Thoughts

Do we need another JavaScript framework?

No.

But will we get 10 more by next Tuesday?

Absolutely.

And one of them will be called something like sparkle-ui or quantum-funk and promise 3ms faster hydration... as long as you run it on a Mac M9 Ultra in Antarctica.

🚀 Pro Tip:

Before creating a new framework, ask yourself:

“Is this solving a problem or just helping me avoid writing CSS?”

Until then, may your builds be stable and your framework names be ironic.
