Tendency towards semantic web is unfortunately dead. Now you have simple blogs rendered by shadow DOM components. Even with templates separation of template and code was ideal - now you have 'reusable components' with templates all over the place. Functional programming has its place, but I'm not sure if everywhere. (You can separate code from templates even with FP and React - but often it is not the case).
