I'm not very familiar with Rust, but doesn't cargo pull a lot of external dependencies for most projects? I really like how Go can do everything with just the standard library, but I wasn't aware Rust was similar. For typescript we've moved our stuff to bun. It has it's own risk management perspective compared to node, but at least it's now possible to build web services without having to rely on a bunch of external dependencies. Which in our highly regulated business would require security policies for each dependency explaining the risks, why we accept them and how we mitigate them.

Some barbarian without a grasp of the Dutch language knee-jerked the down-vote button so I'll add a Swedish version which adds an important attribute.

   Imse vimse spindel klättra upp för trå'n.
   Ner faller regnet, spolar spindeln bort.
   Upp stiger solen, torkar bort allt regn.
   Imse vimse spindel klättrar upp igen.

Here's how to interpret this saga of the ever-climbing little spider in the context of web development. It climbs up its tread (klättra upp för trå'n) 'cause that new framework will sure make catching those flies (clicks/jobs/likes/whatevers) easier. And then the rain starts (the CVEs start piling up, the corrupted packages come flooding in) and the hapless spider gets thrown off its web (Pwned!) until the sun comes back and dries away the rain (a new framework, yay, this will solve all problems) upon which the spider climbs up its thread again.

I think web development does not need that many layers. Usually there is a clear purpose for each layer. I think most problems in web are self-created.

I use vp with sveltekit for my personal projects now, and I must say it's a very nice experience.

vp + sv seems to work very well, when I tried it. And oxfmt supports svelte now too!
