It's because the things people do in the frontend are very different now than 5 years ago.

People forget SPAs and modern frontends are very new and in their infancy... of course they change quickly.

1-2 years ago I'd randomly guess they were using basic jQuery, Backbone, or Angular 1.x... which still work fine. Don't see the problem here.

Visual Basic still works fine. Doesn't mean it's a practical solution to building stuff.
