Y’all, I’ve gotta tell you, I really dislike the state of tooling, frameworks, and third-party modules for building websites.
The complexity, size, and assumptions that come with them, their opaqueness, and the difficulty of making everything play nice is overwhelming.
One quick example: I recently tried to use a style guide and three wrappers around it. Everything shipped >300K of stuff for the “all-in” file, if I could get it to work, and the individual files all had bundler-specific config assumptions built-in making them unusable.
