Speaking as someone who has seen the ebb and flow of frameworks galore on the front-end and back-end, I've found many devs swing back and forth between love and loathing. It's just a natural evolution of how we use tools, and quite often the over/under application of those for the problems we're trying to solve with them.
We've never had more options available to all of us to build complex systems, applications and services using highly-targeted tools. The new-framework-a-day pace at which these become available to us is fine, but honestly doesn't move the needle for most of us.
A former leader of mine once said: you build things with tools, not popularity contests. I've found keeping such a perspective makes my stress level manageable.
