Ptable.com provides most of my earned income. Spent quarantine doing a major redesign. No frameworks or libraries and the full payload, WebGL, property data and all in under 64K.

Is your avoidance of frameworks/libraries based on principle or performance?

Mostly being troubled the value added isn't proportionate to the payload increase. Double my LoC because I don't like typing out "getElementById" or want a throttle/debounce function or two or don't want to deal with hash changes? It seems unjustified if I'm targeting modern browsers.

That mostly makes sense. Would you recommend going towards this route for other developers?
