I think almost everyone actually understands that. What I&#x27;m not sure about is whether most of the people who say that are clear on the fact that may not be a bad thing.<p>Frameworks can have their own complexity and developer overhead, they can demand you spend more time solving the problems they impose (<i>cough</i> AngularJS), they can be ill-suited to the requirements and&#x2F;or problem domain you&#x27;re working in.<p>Building your own isn&#x27;t always the sensible choice, but it can be.
