I've done front end work for nearly a decade now. You're right and I think frameworks are a big part of the issue. Looking at how to do something on the web there is a different way to do it in React, Ember, Angular, jQuery UI, Bootstrap, ExtJS, and about 50 more slightly lesser known frameworks. They don't interoperate well at all. Yes it all boils down to HTML / JavaScript in the end so there is always an integration point but try writing a component that integrates well in even 2-3 of frameworks. Honestly if more people taught solid coding structures and the DOM API (which, yes it's awkward but with the features HTML 5 brought in plus well structured code it's not that bad) you could have a smaller, handful ways of doing something properly and you could even share components far easier. Granted frameworks are not the only problem. But, in my opinion, they've severely splintered the way the web is developed.
