Flexbox & grid took a lot of wind out of the sails of the various frameworks.
The #1 (by a long shot) reason I used to reach for things like Bootstrap was to get my divs in the right spots on the viewport. Now, I can specify sophisticated 2d layouts based upon media queries that consider a combination of viewport dimensions and other device capabilities. Not a single line of javascript is required to do this.
Yep, I had a huge library of SASS (SCSS) mixins that I’d use to accomplish a lot back in the day. ThoughtBot had (has?) a library called Bourbon that came with a bunch and they were amazing.
