I'm really no expert in JS, but I have noticed that now that browsers are much more compliant than they used to be a few years ago, there is a tendency by some to avoid JS frameworks altogether and write vanilla JS. For example, https://gomakethings.com/vanilla-js-guidebook/ (the author is an acquaintance), and there are more on the same train.
I guess that writing vanilla JS might have the added benefit of being easier to accept into core Django.
