Re:How I built a fast JavaScript framework by eberkund on Wednesday March 07, 2018 @10:45AM (#16537137)
In some sense, I feel like the big frontend frameworks are very useful for large apps but they became the default for even the most basic interactions. Now some developers are realizing that for their basic needs it is simpler to go back to the basics. For ambitious SPAs I still think something like React or Vue is the way to go.

Exactly, I'm using react at work when working on a huge web app and jquery at home for my little side projects. It's so nice not having a build step for my side projects. While at the same time it's really nice not using jquery in a project with dozens of developers.
