A quick glance at the Agama repository suggests that the server is written in rust and the front end in react. I’ve no idea how it all works in practice as I don’t use Tumbleweed any more. I really liked the yast installer but it was getting old.
That’s kind of like asking why we’re not all driving Ford Model T cars, after all you could drive in them just fine. Technology moves on, best practice moves on, Hell, everything moves on.
It certainly worked and was full featured, but the interface wasn’t very good. Having to edit the network interfaces to configure them wasn’t good UI for example (the partition editor works the same way). It also took until my second install (that was quite some time ago) to figure out that I could pick what software I wanted to install.
Anyway, a lot of things could be made clearer for first time users.

It worked perfectly well to install though? Like why does it matter if its old
