CSS/JS Frameworks

CSS Frameworks
- Obvious mention of Bootstrap
- Tailwind - more utility focused
JavaScript
- Bundling:
  - babel - transcompile JS to older version of JS. (ES6 -> back)
  - webpack - bundler
  - parcel - faster, webpack alternative (less supported though)
- Frameworks
  - React (Largest community support, which is nice)
    - Next.js - React based, (can handle frontend/backend). Isn’t as mature, but nice for basic routing on SSGs.
    - Tools:
      - react-router
      - clsx (shorthand for ternary class names/styling)
      - react-loading-skeleton - grey bars while loading page content
  - Svelte - compiled from its own JSX-like language, handles basic state for animation/interactivity nicely without complex state management
  - jQuery - mainly for animation/basic requests, but fetch/CSS3 could probably replace this
  - Vue.js - feel like the compile step doesn’t do as much as it should, would rather use Svelte
