I'd rather re-invent a few wheels than use a monstrosity of a system which, even for a fairly simple project, pulls in more than 1,200 "node_modules", taking up nearly half a gigabyte of space. At least when I reinvent a wheel, I end up with a fairly nice custom-made wheel, not an unholy "Howl's moving castle"-style contraption made from bits and pieces of every half-baked wheel that was ever pushed to npm. I'm just grumpy because some stupid issue with broken npm dependencies and TypeScript wasted a few hours of my time today. (But in all honesty, these frameworks actually do suck pretty bad, we can do better.)
