Building UI is labor intensive. It involves a lot of functionality: the layout and display style of elements, binding those elements to data inputs and data display, and has to manage sending and receiving data from the server as well as possibly updating the “page” and it’s element’s outside of a page load cycle. Unfortunately for the way we use the web, the frontend is not simply some two-way bound GUI, but is rather a remote folder browsing application that explicitly was initially designed with the page-load (or reload) as the only explicit mechanism for synchronization of state between the client and the server.
