Creating a simple web app isn’t that hard.
If you want to use a framework The React tutorials from Traversy media are pretty good. You can even do cross platform into mobile app with frameworks like React Native or Flutter if you want iOS/Android native apps.
Vite has been a godsend for React/Vue. It’s no longer the circus it was in the mid 2010s. Google’s monopoly has made things easier for web devs. No more babel or polyfill or createReactApp.
People do still avoid frameworks and use raw HTML/CSS/Javascript. HTMX has made sever fetches a lot easier.
You probably want a decent CSS framework for reponsive design. Everyone used to use minimalist ones like Tailwimd have become more popular.
If you need a backend and want to do something simple you can use BaaS (Backend as a service) platforms like Firebase. Otherwise setting up a NodeJS server with some SQL or KV store like SQLLite or MongoDB isn’t too difficult
CI/CD systems exist to streamline testing and deployment for large complex apps. But for individual hobbyist projects it’s not worth it.
