And a type system...
And maybe a styling system...
Oh and let's have some nice Rx data flows!
But, jokes aside, even if you go that Route you still end up with a complex npm project that involves dozens of libraries.
I've been at that point every year since starting doing npm spas in 2014ish (mostly as side projects, my work is typically more serverside). At some point I just decided that the upkeep wasn't worth it any more as you create the same stack every year but with wildly different libs. For me the solution was to switch to an elm+sass+webpack boilerplate that hasn't changed since 2018 or there abouts.
