Call me crazy but why can't you use Python and JavaScript to build web applications?

Especially if you are building for your own clients or web applications, no one is forcing you to use a framework.

I have been building with just basic Express.js and plain JavaScript on the front end for many years. Generally speaking my clients and users could not care less that it's not React or whatever language/framework some developers may think is better.
