I was going to try my hand at JavaScript but got a bit overwhelmed at the number of JavaScript frameworks, npm, typescript... The whole ecosystem seems so fragile.
Personally I see the variety of frameworks as a sign of health not fragility. Vue, eg., spurred React to become much better and less tedious to code. Svelte took nextjs which is commonly used for React and made an even better framework imo, while React keeps improving. You can even mix and match components. Personally I think JS is overall very healthy.
