I've been building sites for decades and have never used a frontend framework, just html, css, JavaScript and sometimes jQuery.
But I'm currently working on learning React because apparently it's so popular, most full stack jobs are now requiring it.
In a perfect world I would only build the front end with Html and CSS. I like the simplicity and also the security it provides.
I like you. Too many websites are about five times too bloated for what they actually deliver.
Yeah that's what I usually do, tbh frontend frameworks seem kinda pointless to me. You'd think they'd be an improvement on regular js but no

If I need to do data binding, some simple Vue.js. Otherwise, vanilla js or jQuery.
