If your application or website rely a lot on frameworks or libraries then perhaps low code or no code would be the safer and faster way to go. Something such as WordPress allows user to use boilerplate templates and customize them.

Thank you for your feedback. As architects, we have a number of responsibilities: guarding non functional requirements, offering guarantees in the quality level of the output, providing tools that turn software development into software manufacturing, just to name a few. This is not limited to the front-end. In fact, the front-end is often the least of our concerns (cutting corners here, i know) and sure why not pick the path of least resistance there. But as for back-ends that handle huge amounts of events/data and/or need serious concurrency, core code that is tested through and through with minimal specific implementation is probably preferable.
