The frameworks that are popular at the moment make it harder.
I put together a simple set of frameworks, engines and libraries that let me build real-time SPAs really quickly and easily. I've built a complex production app with it in a couple of weeks and it works really well. I tried to promote it a while ago and those who tried it seemed to really like it but it never became popular.
Promoting technical solutions these days is literally impossible if you're not a rock star developer.
I don't even care about promoting it anymore. It's my own secret toolkit now.
If people want to believe that SPAs are harder to build, that's fine. But I'm going to keep building them because for me with my tooling of choice it's much much easier.
Would you enumerate the libraries/frameworks/engines in your toolkit? I'm always interested in alternative approaches. Is it https://github.com/jondubois/nombo ?
The app I built has sign up, sign in, password reset, subscription-based payment processing, usage quota tracking, email verification, GitHub integration and supports different account permission levels and it can scale out indefinitely to pretty much any number of machines. I built it from scratch. Also it has fade in and fade out transitions when navigating between pages and all data throughout the app updates in real time... So for example if you do email verification in a different tab, your main dashboard will update in real time.
And it only receives real-time updates for pages that you're actually looking out so it doesn't over-fetch.
