Personally, the trade off on the JS frameworks is massive.
NPM modules alone is a mess. Most people install far too many dependencies and don't understand what the dependencies actually do.
Having a 5-10mb bundle is considered "normal", which is terrible for performance no matter how you slice it, because it's what hurts the FIRST page load.
Sure subsequent pages are faster and for an application where everyone hits the login page first this might be ok, but for websites it's not because people will be arriving on random pages from search engines.
To prove you don't need 300mb of node modules, i made taino.netlify.app it's 1 script file to build SPA websites and it's 13kb uncompressed, about 3kb when compressed. It also gets indexed by google [Search for "Taino JS" and you'll find it]
Most small business websites could do this and have a web presence without a dozen build tools, compilers and other nonsense.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
