| Nice to see it still around and updated. The sad part is I guess this means React will be around in 2060. |

| What's wrong with React? It made it so much better to build apps vs. spaghetti jQuery. I still have nightmares about jeeping track of jQuery callbacks |

| ▲ | lopatin 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | The problem with React is that it solved frontend. So the options are to 1. Code React all day and be happy with it. 2. Come up with reasons why it's bad. There are many talented and intellectually curious people in the field which lean towards 2. | | |
| ▲ | gmac 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | The problem with React IMHO is it’s so dominant and so annoyingly over-engineered for many problems. I use Mithril and find it much less fuss. |

If you want to write modern web apps, you can use Svelte. If you want to write web apps truly functionally, you can use Elm. React is the jQuery of our times. It was really helpful in the Angular era but we are living at the dawn of a new era now. |

| ▲ | o_m 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | The main divide now is client side React versus Server Components usually with a node.js backend | |
| ▲ | exac 7 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | As someone who doesn't use React, there is React Native (for iOS & Android), and React (and that can be server-rendered or client-rendered). | | |

| ▲ | afiori 26 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | I find it is a good idea, it allows developers to cleanly define how to structure elements without random divs sneaking in. It requires a strong design system and it probably makes it harder to use some web APIs but those can be reasonable tradeoffs | |
