Most app’s code sucks but it’s honestly not the fault of React or styled components or server side rendering etc. It’s the fault of people treating front end like it’s easy and can have any old fool thrown at it. The truth is self-contained pages allow for more errors per line of code with fewer crashed sessions than a comparably bad backend with highly coupled modules. So hiring managers and bootcamps throw inexperienced devs at front ends until the tickets get closed.
I’ve been doing this as a hobby since 2003, writing all caps <HEAD> tags and FTPing .htm files to a web host. I know a bit about how we got here. If you’re really this pissed off you should get a new job and build everything how you want it. I’ve work on greenfield projects almost exclusively for my entire career. It can be done.
