I&#x27;m not convinced we need a monolithic, standard front-end web framework. If there is a framework, it should just be a collection of libraries, and integrations between those libraries. The libraries should be useful by themselves. If you want to integrate a non supported library(may God be with you), you should be able to write your own simple adapter.<p>What I don&#x27;t like is a when a library sneaks it&#x27;s way into all of my code. The rest of my application shouldn&#x27;t care what technology I am using for my views. I should be able to swap between the DOM API, jQuery, React, mustache, etc without having to write a single line of code outside of my views.
