Why? CSS can do layout with grids and flexboxes just fine, while es6 plus the modern browser api are as ergonomic as jquery. Why pull these dependencies from a decade ago?

I never bothered to learn CSS is why. Bootstrap looks good and consistent with what users expect and requires almost zero effort to use.
