Ask HN: Web development environments like native?

I am looking for a web development environment/language/framework that gets as close as possible to the speed, productivity, and uniformity as native development in for example iOS. I find that I have limited time to work on side projects, and I would be much faster (and enjoy it much more) if I didn’t have to slog through the mud that is modern front end web development. There must exist some stack with a relatively decent language, UI framework, and build system, but I haven’t been able to find it or put it together.

Recently I tried Vue/Nuxt, but it lacks good Typescript (or other good language) support and lacks a UI framework (they exist, but they are ugly and/or huge). I’ve tried some other stacks but they generate massive file size which is unacceptable especially if you wish to serve mobile users.

Thanks!
