Ask HN: Does Claude Code remove the need for so many front-end frameworks?

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.
