Re:Ask HN: Why are many Web Frameworks using BigInt?

Can you show an example of a web framework using BigInt? I went looking and didn't find any.
Angular has a single instance of it in the client code where they do a SHA1 digest. That's it.

Thick clients. These hold some state and functionality on the client device.
Thin clients are just display devices, completely incapable of anything without a server.

What web frameworks, and what do you mean by "so many"?
Just checked - React, Angular, Vue.js and Svelte don't use it.
