> You don’t avoid using JS at all but only use it where it benefits the user. For example, the users benefit from having those forms having nice validation, dynamic lookups, etc. but they don’t benefit from using a vDOM on top of the far more efficient browser DOM or loading an entire general purpose templating framework instead of just using the DOM to update an existing form.I am sorry, are you talking about example todo app ?
because for most apps with complex navigation, data entry, and validation this is absolutely not true. Just use the DOM , might be somehow feasible with webcomponents, but they are years late to the game.

You mean we just imagined all of that existing? You could make an argument saying you personally haven’t learned how to do it but that’s a far cry from “absolutely not true”.
