biodiversity is a good thing.
Frameworks aren't life and this isn't diversity anyway. It's React without contexts, refs and proptypes that has fewer developers and significantly less testing. And it's not the only one, because react-lite is React without server-side rendering.

How the hell is feature ripping and repackaging (after removing carefully crafted edge case handling) diversity?
