The top comments are all about the complexity of front ends nowadays and X and Y comparison.

But they're missing the point, this is a really good idea.



Consider the series of bad decisions that allowed such complexity to ooze in the first place. It all eventually boils down to developers putting their needs and concerns ahead of the product/user. I am not convinced this new tool will solve for bad/undisciplined developers.

I used to use 1000 NPM packages as a sarcastic example about bad decisions and death by dependency overkill then I installed Angular which pulls in 1100 packages alone. The end user doesn’t care about your framework choice, favorite language, tech stack, or build process. They just know your application is slow, clumsy, and riddled with defects.
