Yeah, as a solo dev quite new to frontend, that made me nope out of React almost immediately. Having to choose a bunch of critically important third-party dependencies right out of the gate? With how much of a mess frontend deps seem to be in general? No thanks.

I settled on Svelte with SvelteKit. Other than stumbling block that was the Svelte 4 -> 5 transition, it's been smooth sailing. Like I said, I'm new here in the frontend world and don't have much to judge by. But it's been such a relief to have most things simply included out of the box.
