Sort of tangential, but React is way less painful with TypeScript/tsx. I combine that with an IntelliJ IDE (RubyMine specifically) and honestly, it's a lot of fun to write web apps this way. (Maybe that's because I come from an iOS background?)

Anyway, I recommend giving this setup a go.

My first foray into React was done using Typesctipt. The functional nature of React plays very very with the static typing of TypeScript.
