I think lifecycle methods in general, no matter what the framework is, are a suboptimal way of doing things. React works quite differently and shoehorning it into a lifecycle thing was holding it back, or at least that's how I feel. YMMV.

At least it looks like we agree that React is a decent framework :-)

That said, for us devs who do both native and JS code, the condescending part is quite hilarious as well ;-)

I'm doing JS (vanilla and with React), Android and native (well Qt) myself.

It's just funny when pure JS devs go all "no you won't convince me to compile my code / use classes with lifecycles / etc, that's against the natural order!!!"
