Building for the web means using the web platform's inherent features and embracing progressive enhancement. This approach helps avoid the pitfalls of framework lock-in, where expensive and time-consuming upgrades only maintain existing features without real progress. Leveraging browser-native features usually leads to better performance, security, and accessibility while adapting to users' contexts. Relying too heavily on front-end frameworks can introduce severe regressions and unnecessary complexity.
