Is it me, or does the JS tool ecosystem have the same problems encountered in some functional language frameworks (LISP for example)? I'm not comparing the languages here (I'm not a fan of JS), but how they are lacking the 'Batteries' and toolsets other languages have grown up with. Since you can do practically anything with JS (or LISP), if something is lacking simply write your own solution ... repeated 1,000 times. This is why there seems to be a gazillion tools/solutions/framework each doing something similar but different enough to cause massive confusion to newcomers. This is one of the reasons DART had appealed to me, the language came with a framework and tools that helped you get started right away, instead of getting bogged down trying to figure if you should used Webpack or it's numerous alternatives.
