I also started using Frontend Frameworks because it seems so cool and everyone is doing it. I later realized that I missed on so many cool parts of HTML5 and CSS3 that are more performant and easy to work on be it the use of semantic HTML, Grids and Flex box in CSS or even selectors everything is important its not just JS.

Yeah, and one thing that comes to my mind is simple stuff like numbered list. Some people might render a list as <ul> and add the index +1 as the number on the left side of the item because they might not know about <ol> and everything you can do with CSS.

Also CSS counters, pseudo content etc. etc.
