That router thing seems crazy. I'm all for having options that are available. But not having, at the minimum, some blessed implementations for basic stuff like routers seems nuts. There is so much ecosystem power in having high-quality, blessed implementations of things. I'm coming from working primarily in Go, where you can use the stdlib for >80% of everything you do (ymmv), so I feel this difference very keenly.

Indeed. I work mainly in Angular because while it's widely regarded as terrible and slow to adapt, it's predictable in this regard.

Also now with typed forms, signals and standalone components it's not half bad. I prefer Svelte, but when I need Boring Technology™, I have Angular.

90%+ of all web apps are just lists of stuff with some search/filtering anyway, where you can look up the details of a list entry and of course CRUD it via a form. No reason to overthink it.
