It's because the things people do in the frontend are very different now than 5 years ago. People forget SPAs and modern frontends are very new and in their infancy... of course they change quickly. > Compare that to someone who wrote a JS app 1-2 years ago - they have months of catching up to do. 1-2 years ago I'd randomly guess they were using basic jQuery, Backbone, or Angular 1.x... which still work fine. Don't see the problem here.
