btw - what's the state of JS Frameworks Madness in 2018? Did you guys stop producing and throwing away JS frameworks 500 times a day? Have React/Angular devoured the world?
Weird how it has been 4-5 years since people - without proper knowledge - kept shouting about JS framework fatigue, while the three top frameworks (React, Angular and Vue) remain the same. (Same as in leading, Angular has been reworked quite a lot, I do not want to do anything with it.)
JavaScript is a research language. We produce and throw away ideas quickly because we are exploring and testing.
No one should be using research software in production. If you want use JavaScript in production, use older, vetted libraries and use the smallest subset of API you can.
Basically: use good engineering practice.
You might be able to get away with not vetting your libs in other languages, but it will probably bite you eventually. And other languages might not force you to choose your building surface, but that’s probably just because there’s not much of a choice.
