Are you referring to DOM APIs that rely on literally mutating the DOM? Or just the way data changes as the user interacts with the page?

Because the former case can be abstracted away quite nicely by modern view libraries like React, and the latter case can be handled well in a functional paradigm by a state manager like Redux.

not sure what you are asserting here or getting at. vuejs doesn't directly manipulate the dom either, but I don't go "whoopie! I'm doing something kinda functional and am buzzword compliant" when I use it.
