As a member of Huskie Motorsports, I was offered the privilege of building an improved website for the team. To fit the team's history of ruthless resourcefulness and work ethic, I opted to go for a basic stack -- Bootstrap and JS. Writing an organization's website using only an HTML framework posed a great challenge, and required me to think on my own for a lot of problems. With no frameworks to save me from my own mistakes, I had to spend real time with each pixel of the site.
However, there are plans to rewrite the website in a modern solution. Typescript, React, and all of the UI frameworks to stack on top are the craze for web development these days. The only reason the website is using such a minimalist stack is because of my own biases and opinions, and it would be unwise to let that get in the way of a better developer experience.
Other Notes
There are many small things that go into web development beyond code. With the advent of LLMs in programming spaces, I see web development becoming a design-oriented field much more than a "coding" practice. Web development will probably pivot to a marketing sector rather than stay a software role. I still think it's a lot of fun regardless of pessimistic backend developers and their opinions.
