All the major frameworks require you to work off a foundation that's built for high interactivity, and I believe going with one of the major ones (except Angular) is still a good bet.

Technically you can use Vue as a library to add interactivity. It works ok, but you'll switch to compilation eventually.

Still in my opinion Vue strikes good balance between getting shit done and developer experience.

Svelte would be my next bet, I just don't have enough experience with it to recommend it.

Something like Alpine JS or similar would make sense for a project like that.
