Next time, give Vue a shot. All it does is take an HTML template, fill in some data, and update the data when the original 'source of truth' updates. All you have to do is modify that 'source of truth.' Yeah you still have to work with HTML and CSS but it abstracts away DOM manipulation without introducing too much overhead. Use it with Bootstrap, or even materialize for a more opinionated but batteries-included CSS experience. Personally, I tried and hated Angular because it tried to control everything I did. Vue says "make your application however you like, let us handle the view layer and that's it."
