Well, if you’re gonna draw the line there... React alone and the tooling it requires already gives you about 1400 dependencies. That is not what people mean by “zero dependencies”, especially choosing the framework that is one of the worst offenders.
The web framework is irrelevant.
When you throw around FUD like this, can you please also give us some credible sources? You can use cdnjs to get react and react-dom in exactly 2 .js files.
