This is very contextual. If I'm building a web application for an early stage startup which is basically a bunch of pretty CRUD views I'm absolutely using a framework for it, there's no point in hand rolling everything when the problem being solved is exactly what a framework is designed to do. If it's something safety critical, or where getting software updates out to it is going to be a problem, I'm probably going to end up hand rolling a lot more and depending on frameworks less, because I need to understand what the failure modes are and how it's going to deal with them.
