Learning the basics

I started doing webpages for work using Angular which is a lot of stuff as a first step, especially if you use additional libraries for layout/styling that are not CSS. Then came Vue, then came React with even more additional libraries for data stores and so on. I found that I am constantly losing sight of where pure HTML / CSS / Javascript ends and where the rest of it begins. Also why are we using all tools that go beyond the stardard trifecta.
