JavaScript is unlike other languages, it take the big 4 (Chrome, Safari, Firefox and IE/Edge) to come to an agreement to get something done.

And standardization takes many years to reach mass adoptions. No language come close to such a mess. Even Python 2 to 3 migration wasn't as complex.

Yet, they move fast, faster than those languages that are controlled by one authority.

Frameworks are important because at the lower level, things are not as simple to get done as those language with only one authority.

They API agreed by the authorities will definitely be thin. So the community step up with frameworks.
