Does using claude code make you more/less likely to use front end frameworks? I've been using it for a while to develop internal tools and I've been really impressed at how you can build complex applications with just pure HTML/CSS/JS Previously I'd use React but now its not as clear to me the reason I would do that since either way I would just be developing through Claude. It feels almost like the framework is just an implementation detail. I find myself using a lot less libraries in general as well. It kind of gives you a bit of NIH syndrome since the time cost is so low to roll your own sometimes. | |||||||||||
