Re:You probably don't need a JavaScript framework by philliphaydon on Saturday April 30, 2016 @07:09AM (#11601260)
Hmmm I still use a framework. Riot.js because it's all I need. No jQuery, no other frameworks. Just riot.js. I feel like all I write is small little web components. I could do it without riot but this just makes things more consistent for me.

For example I wanted the ability to report content on a page. So I created report.tag, 40 lines of html, 30 lines of Javascript. Done. Then a button which mounts the component when needed. I like this way than using giant frameworks like react and angular.

I wouldn't exactly call React giant framework. It's API is pretty small actually.
