Agreed.
The webside ecosystem is in a high state of flux. It has to be streamlined somewhere. Does it need a fundamental architectural change? Would like to see things a bit more saner ;)
We have hundreds of full sized frontend applications, millions of lines of both javascript and scss. Thousands of extremely complex i/o operations and algorithms. We push the tools in the ecosystem to their limit and have to write our owns where they fail us.
And when I'm at home making a small app, create-react-app and VSCode, then npm install-ing styled-components, is all I need to replicate 80% of the above. It's all just JavaScript so all my tools just work the way I expect them to.
Not everyone needs (or want!) this. And that's okay.
