I'm partial to QT because it supplies OS level primitives remaining mostly cross-platform if the project is developed well. Otherwise, as little external dependencies as strictly necessary.

Phew.. Blazor WebAssembly arrived just in time to save us!
Better yet, some of the Blazor work is retrofitted in WinUI as MVA, exciting time!
|

Saw that in the Build presentations. The creator of DNN has already jumped on board with a Blazor framework named oqtane. Looked at it but didn't bite. Seems like it is not quite ready for prime time, maybe close.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I'll wait for that stuff to mature a bit before I use it in production code

You're such a web, javascript puddle, html 5, css, jquery, react, vue lover!
Me, I'll jump right into it!
I resisted doing web dev as much as I could... But the wave finally caught me anyway
I see Blazor as my savior! Finally a beautiful and sensible and performant technology! Nobody will stop me using it!
Actually.. I should start investigating now how easy it is to sneak in some Blazor tech into an existing website...

In the entire history of web development you may be the first person to have ever said this!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

Configuring webpack and getting things into the right places does take a lot of research and time. I've accomplish some (if not all) of the things you wish to accomplish with webpack. Here is a link to a project that you can clone and npm run start.
Then sample project includes a already set up webpack project that generates src and minified files. It also includes hot reloading.
If you're interested, here is the project.

I don't like web development - you are not in control , when I'm forced into working on a web project I write everything myself wherever possible - no frameworks, no f*****g Entity Framework, no ORM, NO nothing , it's reinvent the wheel at every step - which is probably why I'm kept away from such things

When I moved over from C => C++ => web development, I made it a point not to use any of those "frameworks". In fact, I determined to keep the dependence upon the ephemera, i.e., the coming and going latest-and-greatest platforms far away from my work. Maybe a leftover attitude from my 'C' days.
So I use HTML,CSS,PHP, and JavaScript. Period.
And I can have a lot of fun doing it.
New things don't break old things. Setup's a breezed: mainly my working directories and how I like to color-code my text in the editor. Autocomplete is neat - better, generally, then what spell checkers do to me.
Is this a spartan life, or, have I broken through the surface and can breathe clean fresh air? Maybe just a version of cord-cutting.
You've dug a pit and accessorized it. But, no matter how much you pad and decorate the wall, it's still a pit. Climb out. Shove all the platform dirt in like a cat burying its sh*t - and start doing things right. And feel good about it!

I use SCSS to ease the pain of CSS, the biggest technological turd ever dropped.
Unfortunately, that requires me to use something to transpile to CSS, a pain, but not nearly as painful as CSS.
In fact, to come back to the other discussion, the fact that CSS exists proves that there is no God, only evil!
Seriously, Crystal Reports is the holy grail of tech compared to CSS
You're (partly) right though.
I'm now trying to add TinyMCE WYSIWYG editor to my project and it's just pain and frustration with Webpack.
I can't get it to work, even when following the official documentation.
One line of HTML script with CDN and it works great.
Download it for a local fallback and I'm good to go.
Maybe I'll just use Webpack to transpile the SCSS and bundle my own scripts and to copy some stuff from node_modules to wwwroot and then I'll just keep it at that

That is the question that propagated all of this framework nonsense in the first place. Everyone wants the next bigger and better thing and it leads to a massive snowball careening down a cliff.

Many years ago I created my personalweb-page using HTML. That's it. Not even any CSS.
A little later I added some CSS.
I have managed to keep that landing page clean HTML/CSS since then and it is so easy to maintain and update when I want to. It works on all browsers the same, no problems with incompatible libraries, frameworks or add-ons because there aren't any.
I was tempted to "upgrade" it recently but managed to resist the impulse - and i 'm very happy with it.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

That's going to be difficult for any web app.
You'll need at least some JavaScript.
And if you're doing vanilla JS with lots of dynamic content, you'll beed A LOT of it and it won't be pretty

In the old days there were lots of web pages that were not "web apps".
I had my own "blog" in the fist half of the 1990s, except that the "blog" term wasn't established then. I updated the contents using a plain text editor (I belive it was Brief at that time), and wrote pure HTML, not even CSS.
The text (with images, where appropriate) were the essential thing. You didn't need fancy flashing images and background video to convey your opinions at that time. Yet I had some twenty thousand readers of my Norwegian language blog posts, which was quite a lot in the 1990s. I even was reported to the police for one of them, and had to meet at the police station to proudly declare that I am willing, any day, to stand up in court and defend my right both to have these opinions, and to communicate them to others. I never heard any more from the police.

A WYSIWYG editor so my client can enter rich text including images without having to type HTML.
A connection to a payment system so his customers can pay for rendered services.
Some scheduled tasks to handle automated processing.
This is a business line application, not some blog or personal project.
Needless to say, my client expects he doesn't have to write pure HTML and he'd probably appreciate a little CSS as well

A discussion about various principles for how to decide what can be shown in photographs / drawings / sculpture, illustrated with photos found in books of my parents (dating back to the 1950s), photos from a collection published 1975 of the first three "World Exhibition of Photography", a newspaper front page photo from Tour de France, a pen drawing made by Gustav Vigeland (the artist creating the well known sculpture park in Oslo), a classical painting of Zeus mating the swan Leda, a photo from a book about the human body, a couple photos from a book teaching preschoolers counting...
All of these published and marketed through ordinary commercial channels (although you would have to search used books shops to find them today. I also included a single private photo of my daughter petting our dog at the beach.
Some of the photos are cruel. Like the photo of the TdF biker who lost control and smashed into the concrete wall; streams are running from his head towards the camera, and the text tells that the biker is dying. Or this half rotten child corpse in Bangla Desh, the scavengers have feasted on his body. Or the lynching mob in Budapest, 1956, dragging a man by his feet through the streets until he is dead.
Maybe the photo from a human birth is even more cruel. Or the 1950 photo of two girls being tested by the school nurse for tuberculosis - in those days, you were naked in the office of the school nurse. Or a man an a woman running through the water at the beach. Or of my daughter petting the dog at the beach. Except for the photo of my daughter, they had all been considered acceptable by book publishers / newspaper editors.
Some people were so provoked by my discussion of principles based on this collection of pictures that they called the police's attention to it.
