Afaict vanilla js these days is much less relevant than any of the current frameworks. Is it really that big of a deal to learn a new framework/library every now and then? They're really not that hard to learn and the productivity boost is definitely worth the investment. Hype is not at all the reason they're popular.

The problem isn't learning the frameworks; the problem is creating code that relies on them and has to be supported for years, which may or may not be longer than the active lifespan of the framework.
