Frameworks can save you a lot of time. Especially drop-in frameworks like Vuejs that have very little learning curve yet they can cut the development time by a huge factor (I'd say if I were to write a small app in Vuejs vs vanilla Js, I'd be saving over 80% effort and lot of headaches though ymmv). IMO frameworks are not that bad and there is a reason why so many people use it and learn it. Not using it for the reasons listed in the article isn't very good advice.
