Web development frameworks started to gain popularity around the mid-2000s with the release of jQuery in 2006, which simplified tasks like DOM manipulation and event handling[6]. Subsequently, frameworks such as AngularJS in 2010, React in 2013, and Vue.js in 2014 further contributed to the rising trend of using frameworks to improve code structure, performance, and user experience[1][4]. Additionally, the emergence of CSS frameworks like Blueprint, 960, YUI Grids, and YAML, as well as the release of Bootstrap in 2011 and Foundation in the same year, played a significant role in popularizing web development frameworks and making grid systems more accessible to designers and developers[3]. Overall, the adoption of web development frameworks has offered various benefits such as reducing development time, standardization, easier portability, responsive design, improved security, scalability, sustainability, and community support[5].
