Discussion on: What JS frameworks fail at that makes the new ones being developed so often?

Yeah, it makes sense. But It also feels like framework creators address the same problem in a very similar way all over again but in a different flavour. There are obviously big movements like introduction of V-DOM-based reactivity, and then moving away from it towards build-time DOM diffing. These are totally reasonable because they focus on things like maintainability and performance. But apart from those, maybe JS frameworks are a bit too much opinionated. And at some point, while their communities are developing in kind of bubbles, they start solving less fundamental problems in favour of the style preference.
