Yea, I'm not a web developer, but coming from the desktop world, I am shocked by how little web UI frameworks do for you and how buggy their implementation is. Adding padding here and margin there and flex boxes and all that shit just to get a radio button or a drop-down that we do in one line of code on the desktop side? It's like the software development equivalent of using stone tools and chisels to build a car.
