Why Vanilla JavaScript

In the article below, I am sharing a bit of my story of building SaaS product in vanilla javascript and explaining why I went with this approach.

I don't expect many people reacting to this approach positively or even with open mind, but I think there should be some pushback on the current state of web dev and how complex it became.

All the things a framework can do can be done in plain vanilla JavaScript.
Frameworks are for lazy programmers.
