If someone is making a static business informational page, it’s significantly more likely that they’re using WordPress and jQuery than e.g. React [1]. Like, significantly significantly — 20x more likely to be using jQuery (which is on a full 83% of all webpages) than React, and 30x more likely to be using WordPress than Gatsby or whatever.
People on HN talk about React and friends because they’re building client-side apps that deserve full frameworks. But it’s absolutely not representative of most web development.
