I’ve never experienced these problems, and I run productionized apps from 2016 still. What kind of feature sets were you trying to achieve?
I wrote a collaborative model editor in React and MobX, using some nigh unknown JS library to manage collaborative aspects and d3 for visualizations. All while interacting with multiple services. I upgraded seamlessly across webpack versions, despite continuing to use legacy decorators.
Plus, churn in the front end is completely overstated. Most libraries from a few years ago have the exact same APIs, but perhaps also added a new way of working. You do not need to adhere to this new way of working, or you can progressively adapt it. Small libraries died, but isn’t it professional diligence to evaluate the likelihood of that happening and the risk you take in the first place not doing it yourself? Especially when it is simple.
