OP's note and my comment are about considering the option of no framework. Instead of choosing JQuery (on inertia) or the current fad, consider just using current base language features and best practices. It might be a better choice. As a bonus, to your point, you're then far less worried about finding future devs with your library/framework-specific experience.
