I take it a step further and go no-build js with jsdoc.

The hardest part about scaling this approach is finding UX designers who understand the web. Just as frontend devs have trained themselves to "think in react" over the past decade, so have designers. The understanding of the underlying capabilities and philosophies of the web have been lost to the idea that the web and mobile can be effectively the same thing.

This approach can go far if the team using it knows and respect web technology.

IMO designers should read hypermedia systems by the htmx guy.
