The article is conflating EcmaScript with the browser APIs. Some browser APIs made jQuery unnecessary in some cases, like `querySelectorAll()`. The "next generation" browser APIs like ShadowDom are not even mentioned; they are effectively trying to do what jQuery => DOM APIs did but with React/Angular/etc => Shadow DOM, but failed at doing so spectacularly. THAT should have been the focus on an article titled "Does modern Javascript make frameworks obsolete?" and not whatever this is.
I expected at least a modicum of quality from an official StackOverflow post, but it's so wrong in so many levels that I can only but flag it.
