No matter what framework or library you choose, if you go past the to-do list project you will encounter certain pain points. I worked with jQuery when it was the new kid on the block, with Angular since it first came out and now with React. Every one of them gives you grief now and again. However if you develop pragmatically you learn how to avoid those pain points early on in the process even if it means investing some time. It will pay off later on. And if there is absolutely no way to mitigate the pain - just move on to another library.

It makes me sad to see people ranting about how much typing there is in Redux or Typescript or how much boilerplate and so forth. To me this behaviour screams immaturity, because I don't know how else to explain spending energy on wining instead of finding a solution. Especially, that you don't need to look far - take redux-actions for example. Nice and simple, makes all the heavy lifting for you. If that's not cool in your view how about you actually contribute and write something of your own, rather than moan?
