I am not dismissing it. I appreciate what React is doing, and it is indeed revolutionary. My point is that there has been a lot of evolution and improvement, but developer sanity is one of the few things that have just gone worse. It is dishonest to look only at the bright side of modern frontend coding and forgetting the node_modules nightmare, the incredibly obtuse language, the slow compilation times, the myriad of CSS frameworks that are invented because CSS is an absolute pain in the arse for modern design, etc., the fact that every JS tool either is core to the whole circus and is maintained by a stressed out, underpaid person in the middle of nowhere, or has a minimum of 5k Github issues and a major version released every 3 months, and every time you get a problem you're told "haven't you tried the new alpha release of the big rewrite we've just started?". It is absolute madness, not just frustrating. But yeah, React is cool. |
