And everyone reinvents their own way to lay them out, and handle the dynamic consequences. It may or may not be a consequence of the web stack inherently tying together layout and styling; nevertheless the layout part was in the past done easier and better with visual tools.
I used WinForms for many years before going to the web when they slashed old dotnet. Flex and grid are better than the visual designers. Next.js pages router, React, Styled Components and devserver like Vite or Rsbuild is the best dev experience I have yet encountered. Fast Refresh / Hot Module Replacement is an incredible feature.
