You probably don't need a JavaScript framework
This eternal argument of js framework&#x2F;non-framework reminds me of them old days of static html when Dreamweaver will just munch a  PSD file and spit out working HTML + Images + CSS. Some of us hated it b&#x2F;c the output was bloated, super hard to read&#x2F;maintain, etc. So, some of us just went ahead and coded from scratch. I guess the preference has to do with a need to &#x27;understand&#x27; what&#x27;s going on. Tools like React or frameworks like Angular are just the modern Dreamweavers: don&#x27;t mind the inner-workings, just follow the rules and get the desired output.<p>If I can recommend a js framework so flexible it feels like a non-framework I&#x27;d say go and learn Backbone.js It&#x27;s like a flat green Lego table, no assumptions, just structure.
