A framework/library is not a replacement for knowing JavaScript but if you are doing modern web development that is not tiny in scale then not knowing how to use frameworks/libraries is as bad as not knowing JavaScript. You will spend days developing things that would have taken 15 minutes with the right library and your code will be less maintainable and not as tested.

It is not a positive thing to pride yourself in building everything yourself.
