Ask HN: Show me why you chose to use a front end framework for your project

1 points by meesterdude ↗ HN
I would like to understand what technical benefits a frontend framework has been able to provide your project versus what can be done with server-side rendering.

A lot of sites i see on the internet seem like they could just as well be server side, so i wonder if maybe there are better examples out there that really leverage the technical benefits.

I’m still using jquery. I know it’s kinda old. But I’m not a designer, I have to purchase templates to use. Most templates use jquery and bootstrap. I tried mixing it with react, but there were compatibility issues.

I also considered using pure react or vue. But they don’t seem to have that many ui components and I don’t have the energy to implement them myself.
