> frameworks let you manage the complexity of your application

Close.

Front-end frameworks are one solution to the problem of managing the complexity involved in making an app.

After working with a few of them, I'm not really sure that they're the best ones.

Could you elaborate on what some other solutions are?

I'm not the parent commenter but here are a few that come to my mind:

    - Functions
    - Abstraction
    - Modularity
    - Design patterns
    - Programming paradigms
    - DSLs
    - Conventions for naming/formatting/arrangement
Although I grant that any of these could possibly work even better when codified into a framework.
