I feel like these large frameworks will slowly die out with the advent of agents.

The big selling point of them was a fast, convenient dev experience with many features (most often unused) being built-in.

Now, those built-in features are becoming a security risk as more vulnerabilities are being found in their 1000s of lines of code, and the developer experience benefit is being nullified by agents whittling away the human involvement anyway.

Sadly, the code LLM tools seem to default to the NextJS dumpsterfire stack.

It's surely not difficult to tell the LLM to not use various tools and techniques? At least that works when I use one to create Bash scripts. Anything slightly complicated and the LLM drags in a dependency on Python when an AWK script would most likely be faster, shorter, and easier to maintain. So I just tell it 'Don't use Python',

Yeah, for now. I sense sentiment shifting against these frameworks lately, it might be reflected in their training in a few models time. Or, it’s possible I’m completely off the mark.

Sentiment needs sentience, direction we're heading is the average of what exists, which works but is senseless.
