If you're going to code something yourself, you have to be skilled enough to do it. Admittedly, one of the benefits of frameworks is that they allow low-skilled developers to produce reasonable and safe results quickly. But if you are skilled, you can easily produce code equivalent or better than the average framework out there. And it will likely be simpler because you're only coding for your own use case and not every case that exists.
