Anyone that builds a SPA and breaks opening in new tab or history caching and back/forward nav isn't a good frontend developer (or lacks experience, which is something that's fixable!). These have been solved problems for a long time.

I’m guessing they aren’t using Vue, React, or similar, and they’re rolling their own for some reason.

React doesn't handle any of this stuff out-of-the-box; it's just a UI library.

Neither does vue. You need vue-router, which is required anyway to make an spa with multiple pages.

The only thing that breaks is any component state isn't saved. But this can be fixed by rendering with. How to do this is mentioned in the documentation.

I assume it's similar with react and react-router-dom.
