I am sorry but i don't think that will work. Speaking as someone who tried to implement a fairly complicated ui in plain JavaScript and jQuery, i ended up shooting myself in the foot while writing code that updated the state of the application correctly.

React actually made this a non issue. There are use cases where vanilla html/css/js is just not the best tool.
