Sincerely, we should be leveraging the browser platform and increasingly build our apps on modern platform APIs (e.g. web components), instead of on a framework platform that means more bytes down the wire to do what the browser platform can already natively do.

Admittedly there are tooling gaps with projects like Polymer, but these are being addressed. YouTube.com is already in production built with Polymer.

So just leaving this comment here to encourage everyone to rethink the framework defaults of React/Vue in 2017.

Video here from Polymer Summit on the genesis of web components and the problem it was meant to solve (explosion of frameworks circa 2010, and slow JS apps): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-8Lmg5Gobw
